Health Sciences Council

IU Bloomington's Health Sciences Council was established in 2014 to develop a culture of community engagement, collaboration, and mutual support through the creation and facilitation of networks—physical and virtual—and other collaborative resources among the health sciences. The council meets monthly and is chaired by the Vice Provost of Graduate Education in Health Sciences.
