Please join the Community Medicine Unit of BUSM and the Department of General Internal Medicine for the annual Kathy Bennett Memorial Lecture in Community Medicine. This year, we are lucky to have BUSPH Dean Sandro Galea, MD, DrPH (view profile), as our lecturer.

Abstract from his presentation:

“Trauma is a near ubiquitous human experience. Trauma has implications for mental and physical health of whole populations. We will discuss how trauma stands to inflect the trajectory of population health and how efforts to mitigate the consequences of trauma can improve the health of populations substantially.”
