About the LEND Symposiums

The annual LEND Symposium has served as a forum for students in the University of California-Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental Disabilities (UC-LEND) training program and other UCLA students doing public health work to present their research, internship insights, and engage in sharing knowledge and experiences that have occurred over the academic year.

This year, we are expanding our symposium offering and are excited to present the First Annual Neal Halfon Public Health and Neurodiversity Trainee Symposium! All UCLA students are encouraged to submit their work (research, QI projects, etc.) to be presented. Top submissions will be invited to give an oral presentation; all other accepted submissions will be poster presentations.

Goals and Values
