Global Nexus Conversations brings together diverse experts from McMaster and beyond to share their research, ideas and lived experiences in a series of virtual discussions aimed at exploring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and how the world can prepare for the next global health threat. In this conversation, we will be building on our previous sessions, by discussing acute infectious disease threats, where they come from, and how we can prepare and respond.
We hope you can join us!
