Events

These monthly gatherings will serve as an opportunity for the internal WashU public health community to hear progress updates and to discuss steps we are taking to build the school. We hope that all primarily appointed faculty and staff will attend these assemblies. As we build the school, we invite all interested WashU faculty and staff to join us. There will be a Zoom link for those unable to attend.

The monthly Thinking Public Health gatherings will be an opportunity for in-depth conversation within the WashU community about topics of current concern in public health. These will be moderated, structured, in-person discussions observing the Chatham House Rule to encourage open conversation. If anyone has specific topics they would like to be considered for one of these conversations, please email Dean Sandro Galea.
