Dean's Leaders & Lagniappe Lecture: Nov 10

Join our host Dean Thomas LaVeist as he speaks with visiting public health leaders from the US and beyond in a lecture series held at the Tulane University Celia Scott Weatherhead School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine in downtown New Orleans, Louisiana.

The Dean’s Leaders & Lagniappe Lecture Series is a chance to expand our learning and networks, and to introduce our students, faculty, and wider audience to the innovations, ideas, and leadership values from distinguished leaders in public health, and to further broaden our definition of public health.

In November, we welcome Dr. Tom Frieden, former CDC Director and current President and CEO of Resolve to Save Lives, for a talk and book signing for his new book, The Formula for Better Health: How to Save Millions of Lives, Including Your Own.

We find public health at precarious cross-roads at the federal level, and many of us are trying to imagine what the future of public health looks like in America, and internationally as America’s position changes. We welcome Dr. Tom Frieden, previous director of the CDC, to discuss his new book and to have a critical discussion on his insights on the state of public health, and the prospective public health priorities for the future.

After the discussion, Dr. Frieden will be in the Diboll Gallery for a short book signing. Books will be available for purchase on site, thanks to our partners at the Tulane University Bookstore.
