Communications

A significant advantage to membership in the Child Health Research Institute is access to regular communication regarding the latest research news, funding opportunities and sponsored events. Our primary mouthpiece is our Research Bulletin, which comes out monthly and profiles our members and their work. In addition to the Bulletin, we regularly send out reminders for upcoming events and relevant news.
