Attend The Annual History of Medicine Symposium on Saturday September 26! It will be held at the Emory School of Medicine Education Building Room 110-100 Woodruff Circle, Atlanta GA

This Annual History of Medicine Symposium will discuss how medicine has been influenced by society and how the study of past epidemics helps us respond appropriately today and in the future, especially with the recent and very real experience of Ebola. The impact of the Surgeon General’s report on smoking and Health will remind us of the importance of getting our patients to quit smoking and the significance of the Surgeon General’s Office. Modern day lessons on Ebola Virus Disease and its devastation to personal and societal health will be presented by those who were on the front lines of treating this disease in 1976 and 2014. It is intended for any physician interested in a historical perspective that will help us to better understand the present, especially in the complex socio-economic global environment in which we currently practice medicine.
