Center for Research Support & Conferences

The Center for Research Support and Conferences (CRC) operates under the supervision of the Vice-Dean for Research & Postgraduate Studies at the College of Medicine. It serves as a centralized resource for supporting conferences and academic events across the Health Sciences Center (HSC), fulfilling organizational and logistical administrative endeavors.
