It embodies the Foundation’s commitment to fostering diverse perspectives and meaningful dialogue on critical issues.
Dr. Fauci will discuss his 50-year career in medicine and public service. His lecture will be followed by a Q&A with Cathy Wurzer, journalist and host of “Morning Edition” and “Minnesota Now”on MPR News.
