Community Driven Engagement

Author
VP Jakub Tolar, MD, PhD

You are invited! This fall’s virtual Mini Medical School will highlight Food, Nutrition & the Effects of Substances on Health. This free series will dive into the connections between food and nutrition as well as the health of our planet. I invite you to participate and help promote this and other efforts to take our expertise outside of the walls of our institution to those we serve.

For the past 24 years, Mini Medical School has been developed for and sustained by community members. It’s not only a chance for community members to learn about different health topics and experience what it’s like to be a health sciences student at the University, it’s an opportunity for us to showcase how we are working together to address critical health issues. We ask what topics people want to hear about most and connect University experts from across the health sciences and beyond to share our research and discoveries, tying in timely subjects affecting people today.

Sharing resources like our popular community outreach and education program Mini Medical School matters—it is a way to connect with Minnesotans and provide useful information on health issues affecting communities. We look forward to seeing you there.
