Join us on Thursday 15th February for our Global Health Forum with a focus this month on air pollution, health and cities.

Our monthly Global Health Forum brings together Imperial researchers, students, and staff from across all of the college’s Faculties to highlight, discuss and disseminate findings on current global health research and innovations. The Forums encourage interdisciplinary discussions with the intention to foster inter-Faculty research initiatives and leverage the immense strengths of Imperial College to resolve global health priorities of the early 21st Century.
