Special Coffee & Science Wrap Party December 3rd
Our last regular Coffee & Science event happens tomorrow 11/19 at 9:30am PT with Dr. Damon Francis and Dr. Noha Aboelata, but we just couldn't bear to finish the series without a chance to come together as a community and hear your reflections on the past year’s conversations. Join us on Friday, December 3rd, at 9:30am PT / 12:30pm ET for a SIREN Coffee & Science Wrap Party hosted by two thought leaders in the social interventions field:
- Bethany Hamilton, JD, Co-Director of the National Center for Medical-Legal Partnership, and
- Kelly Doran, MD, MHS, Emergency Physician and Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine and Population Health at NYU Grossman School of Medicine.
We want to hear from you!
Our SIREN Coffee & Science event and podcast series has been running bi-weekly since January. As Coffee & Science comes to a close, we'd like to hear your thoughts on the series as well as your suggestions for future events. Please fill out our short survey here.
