AITHM hosted AITHM booths and information sessions at both Townsville and Cairns Campus Open Days.
JCU Open Day is an opportunity for the public and potential future students to find out more about their local university. The AITHM booth in Townsville showcased some of the ground breaking and diverse research of the institute, from hookworms to tuberculosis, and highlighted construction of the AITHM buildings in Townsville, Cairns and Thursday Island.
JCU Open Day in Cairns featured tours of the aquarium and an in-depth look into parasitology. The feedback received from these open day activities was incredibly positive with an estimated 2500 visitors to AITHM exhibits. Thanks also to the team members and many volunteers that made Open Day 2015 a tremendous success.
