Gain research-based insights into complex health issues as experts from University of Illinois deliver forward-thinking, holistic solutions for addressing today's health challenges in the Community Seminar Series offered via Zoom on Wednesdays at noon (CST) March 1 through April 19, 2023. Pick and choose programs based on interest. 

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought with it an "infodemic" phenomenon: an overabundance of information – some accurate and some not – that makes it hard for people to find trustworthy sources and reliable guidance when necessary. In this session of the series, you will learn more about this phenomenon and discuss ways to prevent, detect, and respond to misinformation.

CEU's through the Continuing Education Institute of Illinois (CEII) are now available.
