First public event: Let’s demystify obesity—together!

📢 It’s time to register for the first public event titled Let’s demystify obesity—together!
🗓 November 19, 2025, starting at 6:00 p.m.
📍 Auditorium of the Institut universitaire de cardiologie et de pneumologie de Québec – Université Laval (or online, via live streaming)
Organized by the Fonds Denis Richard en mobilisation et transfert des connaissances en #obésité (Fondation IUCPQ), this event aims to inform the public about the causes, complications, treatment, and prevention of obesity.
A panel of scientists and citizen partners – including Jean-Pierre Després, Benoit Arsenault, Andréanne Michaud, Virginie Blanchette, and Guy Poulin – will engage with the audience to debunk myths and, most importantly, explore practical solutions.
👉 Dr Alexandre Caron will have the pleasure of moderating the discussion in collaboration with Obesity Matters (Parlons Obésité).
✨ An event not to be missed!
