Virtual Networking|Global Health NOW: Climate Change

Brian Simpson
Start Date
End Date

Join us for a highly valuable and interactive discussion about networking for career and professional development. We begin with a short presentation by our featured speaker (10 - 15 minutes) followed by Q&A and virtual networking.

In this session, each alumni will have the opportunity to briefly answer three questions in an innovative format designed to facilitate networking in a webinar setting. There will also be an interactive discussion following a brief overview about the goals of the Networking Webinars and alums are encouraged to share their views and interests.

Brian Simpson (A&S '97, BSPH '13) will share his experience launching Global Health NOW and the first GHN Live event on November 30th which will focus on Climate Change. GHN is a daily news source in Global Health which highlights the day’s most important articles about research, trends and events to summarize in the e-newsletter and on the website. The email is sent every weekday morning, and the website is updated shortly thereafter.
