Drawing Across the Disciplines is a series that focuses on Knowledge Translation and Mobilization in a variety of media and formats. The series alternates between two formats: a webinar with faculty speakers and a hands-on in-person workshop for researchers and their research teams to learn tools and best practices in media such as data visualization, podcasting, and graphic facilitation.
