This is an invitation to a health psychology student research day on December 3rd to be held at Massey University, Albany Campus. This event brings us together as a learning community working in health psychology. It is an opportunity for us to share what we’ve been working on, as well as an opportunity to help with your ‘next step’ plans. This year is a special year, as we are holding the research day in conjunction with celebrations of 30 years of health psychology at Massey.

The student research day is an opportunity to share your research and practicum experiences and to hear about others’. It could also be a great chance to practice for your next (or first!) conference presentation in a very supportive setting. We very much encourage students to present. But those who want to only attend (rather than presenting) are very welcome and we encourage anybody with an interest in health research to attend.

There will also be a keynote talk, a chance to meet staff and hear about the kinds of projects they supervise, and an opportunity to hear from some of our alumnae about their current work.

We hope to provide an exciting and informative event – generated by the energy we bring to our work and to the day. It would be great then, if you can attend physically. But for those unable to attend in person, we will provide virtual connection via Zoom for some aspects of the day.
