WE-SPARK IN THE NEWS:

OUR CONTRIBUTION TO THE HEALTH AND INNOVATION PARK PLANNING

Over 130 people came together for "Cheers to Hope" (April 27th) to celebrate local health research successes and highlight the importance of health research for the future of Windsor-Essex. The ultimate goal of the event was to garner support for the WE-SPARK grants program.


At the event, we debuted a video showcasing our unique research environment while focusing on the message that research changes lives. The video brought messages of gratitude from our local researchers towards our supporters for being the difference.
