RESEARCH professionals working in Cumbria are set to discuss their work around the issue of obesity in a webinar next week.
Pears Cumbria School of Medicine is hosting the CumbriaMed Research Webinar series and the latest edition, focussing on obesity, takes place on Thursday October 30.
Leading researchers, Professor Tricia Tan and Dr Ishara Ranathunga will discuss their work in Cumbria on the topic, before a live Q&A.
Pears Cumbria School of Medicine opened on August 26 on Carlisle's University of Cumbria Campus, offering postgraduate courses to the next generation of medical practitioners.
As well as producing future medical practitioners, the school of medicine will directly address Cumbria's poor health outcomes and inequalities, using a bespoke curriculum and pioneering new research hub.
Webinars delivered by the research hub can be attended by staff, students, patients and the public.
The webinar series was funded by the NIHR Imperial Biomedical Research Centre.
