GLOBAL HEALTH SEMINAR: EBOLA

Featured Speaker: Frank Kraljic

Session: The Ebola Response

Over two years after the principal case, the West African Ebola outbreak is nearing a close, but many questions about the disease remain unanswered. Supplemented with raw edits from his forthcoming feature documentary, Frank Kraljic will share unheard stories and unique perspectives from inside the outbreak, as well as explore the origins and transmission of the virus and its part in the bigger picture of emerging diseases.
