Welcome back to another year of the McGill-UofT Wellbeing Research Seminar. Now in its third year, the 2025–2026 seminar series addresses two foundational problems in well-being research: ‘How should the field select appropriate concepts of well-being for study?’ and ‘How can we measure these concepts reliably?’ We will host leading psychologists, philosophers, and economists who study how to conceptualize, define and measure well-being.
