The HCLS hosts vibrant discussions on a variety of topics on the first Tuesday of every month. Subsequent meetings are organized by one of three broad areas: Life Sciences, Pharmaceutical and Clinical Research, and Health Care. Task forces meet at regular intervals to plan, discuss issues and report on progress. Meeting times are indicated on this page, but specific dates are available from the HCLS Google calendar.
