Visiting Speakers Seminar Series
As a part of the Departmental Seminar series and often in collaboration with other OHSU units, we are proud to host a range of speakers from across the nation and around the world. The varied topics and expertise are a stimulus for faculty, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students alike. External speakers generally share lunch with graduate students and postdoctoral fellows during their visits. These seminars are presented on Thursdays at 4:00 p.m. in the Vollum Auditorium.
Colloquia
Research interest groups and PH2 graduate students alternate presenting at these colloquia, which take place on Tuesdays at 4:00 p.m. in the Steinberg Conference Room.
