The University of Illinois, along with the Interdisciplinary Health Sciences Institute, and in collaboration with Illinois Extension, has developed the Autumn Health Picks 2023 webinar series. This series is part of the Community Seminar Series, and it provides an opportunity for the community to learn about current health research, find reliable sources of health information, and engage in direct dialogue with U of I researchers.
The Autumn Health Picks 2023 is a free weekly interactive health-related webinar series in which health science experts from the University of Illinois offer holistic and forward-thinking solutions to address current health challenges and share the latest science and research-based information on different topics, as well as answer community members’ health-related questions.
“These webinars aim to increase health literacy and improve health and wellness behaviors among diverse audiences,” says Dee Walls, Extension outreach associate.
