Lunch Panel: Indigenous Research Perspectives on Health

Indigenous graduate students across the University of Montana engage in research and projects that center around the health of this world, including people and communities, but also the environment around them. These graduate students will offer their insights into their work as it pertains to them in the areas of Counseling, Toxicology, and Clinical Psychology. Indigenous perspectives in research are important to offering new insights and understanding not only in higher education, but the broader world around us.

Moderator: Sierra Paske Cureton, Ph.D. Student in Chemistry, Hunkpapa Lakota & Arikara
