Past Expos

Previous ITHS Expos have been held at the University of Washington Husky Union Building, virtually during the Covid lockdown, and more recently at Burke Museum in 2022, at wǝɫǝbʔaltxʷ – Intellectual House in 2023, and at the Center for Urban Horticulture (CUH) in 2024. We’re pleased to be returning to the CUH this year! Read about Expo 24 here.

With attendees and presenters coming from across the region and from many different areas of health research, the event has always proven to be the perfect chance to network, learn and to celebrate translational science. Check out the photos and videos below and don’t forget to register!
