The McCall MacBain Postdoctoral Fellows Teaching and Leadership Program, in partnership with McMaster Alumni Association, invites the McMaster community to join this webinar to learn about the fascinating research of five scholars from the Program.

Each will share an overview of their research in a short 8 mins talk. You’ll also learn a little bit about them and how they hope their research will impact our world.

Join this talk to learn something new about concussions, endangered animals, sex differences in biomedical research, global climate change and the philosophy of mathematics. A Q&A session will follow the talks.
