EPI Research Day 2025 is just around the corner! The event will occur on Thursday, Feb. 27, from 9 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. in the University of Florida Reitz Union Grand Ballroom. Times Magazine named our keynote speaker, Dr. Peter J. Hotez, one of the top 100 people in healthcare for 2024. Save a seat to listen to his talk on "Vaccines in an Era of Global Boiling and Rising Anti-Science." You are in for a fantastic event with over 170 posters, two keynote talks, and several exhibit booths. We have a lot of activities in store for this year, including four poster competitions, free merch, a photo wall, and raffle prizes! All attendees will be provided breakfast, refreshments, and lunch, and parking information will be sent out closer to the event date.
