About Blue Plate Research

Blue Plate Research is a health and well-being event series from Utah State University that highlights the discoveries and research efforts at USU, with a focus on sharing easy-to-understand research with Utah health advocates, statewide stakeholders, and the public.

Each event is hosted in-person at Gallivan Center in downtown Salt Lake City. Our presenters share their research and how it applies to the everyday lives of people in Utah, followed by a live question and answer session. The presentation and the Q&A will each be approximately 30 minutes. Lunch is also provided for all attendees.

This event series grew out of a previous collaboration between Utah State University and Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Utah known as Sunrise Session, which featured quarterly research presentations in Salt Lake City. That series had thousands of attendees across more than 50 live events and was highly successful. Blue Plate Research has continued that successful partnership with a more focused content direction.
