Knowledge 2 Connect
Knowledge 2 Connect is an initiative organized by the Knowledge Centre for Health Ghent. Every year the knowledge centre organizes five Knowledge 2 Connect meetings aimed at supporting researchers. The focus is based on providing customized information and exchanging best practices. The seminars are practice oriented and tailored to researchers who perform research in the area of medicine and health.
Practical information
The seminars will be organized either entirely on the UZ Gent campus, entirely via MS Teams, or in a hybrid format. The choice is made in consultation with the guest speaker.
Registration is required for each seminar via the link below. If the seminar takes place on campus, a sandwich lunch will be provided, thanks to our sponsors.
For online or hybrid seminars, you will receive an email with practical details, including the MS Teams link for participation, a few days before the seminar.
CME credits / Doctoral Schools
Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits (i.e. ‘accreditatie’) has been requested for all Knowledge 2 Connect meetings (section 6 ‘Ethics and Economics’). The Knowledge 2 Connect program is part of the Transferable Skills programme (Cluster Research & Valorisation) of the Doctoral Schools of Life Sciences and Medicine.
