Lecture: Rob Stein - From AIDS to Zika

NPR health correspondent and senior editor Rob Stein has covered global infectious diseases since the early days of the AIDS pandemic, also reporting on emerging pathogens such as SARS and perennial threats such as influenza. On Tuesday, Jan. 24, Stein will visit the University of Georgia to talk about his journey as he opens the 2017 Global Diseases: Voices from the Vanguard lecture series.

Stein’s talk, “From AIDS to Zika: The View from the NPR Science Desk,” is the first of three events sponsored by the UGA Grady College Health and Medical Journalism graduate program and the UGA Center for Tropical and Emerging Global Diseases.

The talk will be followed by a free public reception at Demosthenian Hall, next door to the Chapel.
