The 26th annual Rush University Forum for Research and Clinical Investigation is sponsored by Rush University Medical Center, Rush University, the Rush University Chapter of Sigma Xi, the John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County and the affiliated hospitals of the Rush System for Health. The Research Forum provides an opportunity to showcase research of faculty and students and to foster awareness of research at Rush University Medical Center and its affiliated institutions. Investigators engaged in basic, clinical, or applied research in various disciplines will have an opportunity to share their work during research forum events, to get to know one another, and to explore new collaborative possibilities.

Abstract submission will start around Monday, January 5th, 2009 and should end around Friday, February 20. Abstracts should be submitted through the Rush intranet using the link to the right.

SUMMARY OF FORUM EVENTS

The Rush University Chapter of SIGMA XI POSTER SESSION will also take place in the Searle Conference Center. This is an excellent opportunity to display posters made for national meetings during the past year. A program book of abstracts will be generated which also serves as a reference for ongoing research at Rush.
