Event Details
The UQMind Symposium is an annual panel discussion about wellbeing, and one of the highlights of Blue Week. It’s a chance for students to chew the fat with some of the brightest minds in medicine about looking after ourselves and each other in the medical profession.
In 2021, for the first time, UQMind will be holding 2 concurrent Symposiums – at St Lucia and online via zoom, with 2 different topics and 2 fantastic groups of speakers!
Our in-person symposium at St Lucia will be oriented towards phase 1 students, whilst the concurrent online symposium will allow phase 2 students from metro and rural clinical sites to engage in a panel discussion over zoom.
If you’re a student at any stage of your degree, these events will offer something for you!
Keep an eye out on this event page for more information on topics and speakers for both symposiums!
