Listen to the Lecture: Surving Stress in Your Life

Live & Learn – March 2006

Stress can be defined as a physical, chemical or emotional factor that causes bodily or mental tension.  That can be good – and bad.  "Surviving Stress in Your Life" is the topic of the next program in the Live & Learn Lecture Series.  Dr. Alex Reed will discuss this issue in a public lecture at the KU School of Medicine – Wichita campus at 1010 N. Kansas, March 14 at 11:30 am.  Wichita Public Radio, the University of Kansas School of Medicine – Wichita and the Medical Society of Sedgwick County are collaborating on this monthly series.  You're invited to bring a sack lunch to the lecture, which is free and open to the public.  Snacks and/or dessert and beverages will be provided.  The KU School of Medicine – Wichita campus is located at the 8^th/9^th Street exit on I-135.
