Curious about epigenetics and pancreatic cancer? The hidden challenges of pregnancy? Social cognition in people living with HIV? UAB Libraries has you covered. Hear three research teams present their research findings from projects on these topics that were supported by systematic review services offered by Lister Hill Library of the Health Sciences’ Department of Clinical, Academic, and Research Engagement in UAB Libraries.

Each team will present their papers, share findings and outcomes, and discuss their contributions to science, and each team’s librarian will share their search strategy. Time for Q&A also will be included. Light snacks will be provided.

Speakers from the following publications will present on their work:
