Wichita Public Radio, the University of Kansas School of Medicine – Wichita and
the Medical Society of Sedgwick County will again collaborate to present the
Live & Learn Lecture Series. The series is designed to provide information
on various medical and health topics, and features a monthly public lecture at
the KU School of Medicine – Wichita campus at 1010 N. Kansas, two in-depth radio
news reports on each topic, and a website archive of the news reports and
recordings of the lectures.
Dr. Joesph C. Meek, for whom last year's lecture series was named, will
present the first lecture of the new season on September 13.
Dr. Meek's lecture – When the Thyroid Goes Awry: Part II – will carry on
the discussion from his presentation last year, which drew the largest audience
of the lecture series. All lectures are FREE and open to the public, and will be
held the second Tuesday of each month, 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Each lecture will be
held in the Sunflower Room at the KU School of Medicine – Wichita campus. You
are invited to bring a sack lunch. Snacks and/or dessert and beverages will be
provided. Registrations are requested by calling 316-293-2643.
