Health Talks are monthly workshops that take place in our Centre for Health Information and can also be watched online.
Baycrest health professionals review a newspaper or magazine article on a health topic to help you learn how to understand health information and how to spot false or misleading claims.
Copies of the article are available in the Centre for Health Information before and during the program.
If you have any questions, please contact Suzanne Pede, Project Coordinator, Patient, Family and Consumer Education (PFCE) at [email protected].
The Health Talks series is sponsored by the Ada Starkman Community Lecture Series Endowment Fund.
