NSU Health Professions Division to Host Research Day, Feb. 14

If you love research, here’s a fun way to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Nova Southeastern University’s (NSU) Health Professions Division (HPD) will host its bi-annual Research Day on Friday, February 14 to showcase its health, medical and biotechnology research.

The event is open to the public and will be held at 8:30 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. in the Terry Building (HPD) on NSU’s main campus and will be broadcast to NSU’s Regional Campuses.

More than 2,000 world-class researchers, faculty and students are expected to attend Research Day. Awards will be given for outstanding research. The event will feature more than 100 research presentations from world-renowned researchers and HPD faculty and students. Some of HPD’s federally-funded research includes cancer treatments, AIDS and HIV prevention, hypertension, dental stem cell therapies, blood thinner drugs, heart disease, diabetes and much more. The research is conducted by HPD’s seven colleges, including dental medicine, health care sciences, medical sciences, nursing, optometry, osteopathic medicine, and pharmacy.

The event, which is one of the largest research seminars in Florida involving students, offers participants a chance to learn more about HPD’s cutting edge discoveries and their impact on the community and throughout the world.
