Research Leadership Academy Events

The CURE-KY Open House will take place on August 16 from 4-6pm in the HKRB Lobby and HKRB 150 to celebrate the establishment of Infectious Disease as an Emerging Research Area at UK. Guests can enjoy light refreshments, appetizers, and non-alcoholic beverages.

Additionally, there will be a raffle with more prizes. This will be a great opportunity to have fun and mingle with other infectious disease aficionados!
