Event Date: 

Wed, May 02, 2018 - 2:00pm to 3:00pm

Event Location: 

217AB CPHB, College of Public Health Building

In the last few years, the public has become more sensitive to the experiences of individuals who identify as transgender/gender non-binary, and their perspectives have gained more visibility. Researchers have started to take steps to ensure that individuals, regardless of gender identity, are comfortable participating in research. Join us in this moderated panel discussion where HSO staff, community members, and researchers will discuss:

  • Introductory information about gender identity
  • How to represent  transgender and gender non-binary subjects in HawkIRB
  • Researcher and community member perspectives on respectful research interactions with transgender/gender non-binary participants

Pre-registration is recommended.
