Is Laughter Contagious? (And Other Public Health Ponderables)

Join us for an enlightening and hilarious night as we dive into the world of infectious diseases with Dr. Michael Osterholm, a renowned epidemiologist and director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP) at the University of Minnesota. 🤔💉

Expect to explore pressing health concerns, from Hantavirus to Ebola, followed by a live, unscripted performance by talented improvisers who will bring the conversation to life through comedy! 🎭🎤

As the Minnesota Star Tribune aptly put it, imagine "C-SPAN suddenly swarmed by the cast of SNL"! This unique mix of learning and laughter guarantees you'll leave with new insights, a few laughs, and perhaps an amusing fear of recycled air. 🛫😄

What to Expect:

• Engaging discussions with newsmakers and experts.
• Spontaneous sketches based on the evening's interview.
• A chance for the audience to ask questions.
• Concluding improv performances by our cast.

Celebrate our 20th season filled with thought-provoking insights and dynamic performances!
