“A Serendipitous and Accidental Life”

This is a free event and all are welcome.

About the Lecture: The generally held belief is that careful planning leads us to desired outcomes. It is also known that serendipity or accidents influence life of the individuals and the communities. While taking some examples of serendipity and un-intended collisions including those at the Ontario Veterinary College that shaped his life, relationships and professional career, Dr. Singh would like to engage with the OVC community on this and other topics.
