Tech Tuesday Talks is a free, monthly seminar series bringing together researchers
from across the USC campus who share an interest in technology-assisted health promotion
and disease prevention interventions and research. The series presents a forum to
learn about one another’s work, spark collaborations, as well as introduce students
to the ongoing research conducted on the USC campus which incorporates technology
in health promotion. All interested faculty, staff, students and the general public
are invited to attend. Tech Tuesday Talks are presented on the fourth Tuesday of
the month in Discovery I Building, Room 140 at noon. To learn more, visit http://techealth.sc.edu/tech-tuesday-talks or contact magradey@mailbox.sc.edu.
