Making Connections
Building Blocks: Making Connections 2011 - June 5-7, 2011 – Jasper, Alberta
This year marks the third consecutive year we’ve provided the opportunity for Alberta’s health research community to come together to network, share insights, discuss processes, and address health research issues.
