Events
The REACH Enrichment Program features various events covering a broad variety of topics such as mind/body interactions, pathophysiology of spinal pathologies, practices and evidence for integrative medicine approaches, precision medicine, and big data analytic methods. REACH events will vary in scope and format, from seminars, face-to-face networking and social events, to workshops that enable REACH investigators, faculty, students, and the general public to interact with one other.
