Dr. Evans speaks at Beijing Forum in October, 2006

Institute Director Greg Evans was a featured speaker at the prestigious Beijing Forum this past October. The Forum is co-sponsored by Peking University and the Korea Foundation for Advanced Studies, and aims to promote the study of the humanities and social sciences along with academic development and social progress in the Asia-Pacific region.

Dr. Evans participated in the “Public Health Preparedness and Health Security—Facing the Challenge of Human Health Problems” panel session. His session was titled “Preparedness Paralysis: Ramifications for Pandemic Planning”. He was joined on the panel by Frank Song, Senior Scientist at the Virginia Health Quality Center, and Luis Jorge Perez, Deputy Executive Director for the Asian Disaster Preparedness Center.

Professor Stanhope presented the “Tale Of Two Cities” to a number of diverse lay and professional audiences in Missouri, Colorado, Washington, DC and Georgia during the fall semester. You can view that presentation on the Institute’s website at http://bioterrorism.slu.edu/TaleofTwoCities1918.html.
