Organizers of the sixth Lillian Meighen Wright Maternal-Child Health Learning Academy announce a call for poster abstracts.
This two-day event is organized by the Women’s Health Research Chair in Mental Health and the Lillian Meighen Wright Scholars Program Academic Lead, Professor Nazilla Khanlou, and the student co-chairs of the program, Bianca Bondi and Ilana Shiff.
This year, the event will focus on the theme “Maternal-Child Health and Well-Being in a Global Pandemic: Promotion, Prevention, Intervention” and will run on July 18 and 22 in a virtual format.
Abstracts for posters can be submitted by students, educators, researchers, service providers, policy-makers, and community members. Send an abstract for the poster by April 15. Abstracts should not exceed 300 words in length. Please format your abstract for the poster using the headings provided here and email your abstract to owhchair@yorku.ca. In the subject line of your email, mention “6th LMW Academy: Poster.”
Presenters of accepted abstracts will be notified, and their abstract will be included in the sixth Lillian Meighen Wright Maternal-Child Health Learning Academy’s program booklet. Poster presenters will be required to submit a pre-recorded video version of their poster to be presented during the event. As well, poster presenters will be invited to submit a fuller version of their work in a manuscript format to a special issue of the International Network on Youth Integration (INYI) Journal.
