Community Seminar Series

What’s really in your child’s drink? Join Carle Illinois College of Medicine M.D. Candidate Nikita Chigullapally and explore how to build healthy beverage habits for growing kids. Learn how to spot hidden sugars, understand labels, and choose water and natural drinks over sugary options—so you can help your children (and yourself) make smarter, healthier choices every day.

A partnership between the Illinois Extension and the Interdisciplinary Health Sciences Institute, the Community Seminar Series provides educational seminars of interest to the community each fall, spring, and summer, delivered virtually by graduate students and postdoctoral research trainees. The Community Seminar Series covers health topics driven by public interest, helping attendees make healthier choices and overcome public health misinformation. 

CEUs through the Continuing Education Institute of Illinois (CEII) are available.
