UConn’s first Virtual Malnutrition Awareness Fair will be held over the week of October 4th through October 8th, 2021, in recognition of Malnutrition Awareness Week. It will consist of student presentations, recorded in advance, and posted to YouTube. Through this event, students of a wide range of disciplines (including nutrition, nursing, pharmacy, pre-medical school, and more) will present on various topics relating to malnutrition. Each presentation will be given by a group of one to four students. Each day of the week will consist of presentations on a particular area of focus relating to malnutrition. This is an excellent opportunity to build your resume and strengthen your presentation skills in a low stakes (virtual) environment! If you feel that you do not have a strong understanding of malnutrition, this should not stop you from participating! We will provide you with all the resources you need to educate yourself and to create an exceptional presentation that will benefit others.

*The deadline to sign up to present is Wednesday, September 15, 2021.
