OK, I admit this is shameless self-promotion for work, but I think it’s of interest to a few of you.

The shiny, brand-new University of Washington Department of Global Health is hosting a 4-week Global Lecture Series in October. Leading off on Tuesday at 7pm in Kane Hall is a panel discussion on fairness in health with some really smart people talking (but sadly, not singing). Later on in the month brings some super-heavyweights in the world of public health — Ira Longini and King Holmes among them. These are people who are leading the fight against HIV/AIDS and trying to stop the bird flu pandemic before it starts. If you’re into health and science, you need to come on out.
