CPPR Book Club

Join the Center for Pandemic Preparedness and Response (CPPR) book club. We meet periodically throughout the year to discuss books about public health, pandemics and more. Attend one or all of our meetings, held both on Zoom and in person at UCSF Mission Hall.

UCSF welcomes everyone, including people with disabilities, to our events. To request reasonable accommodations for this event, please contact Melissa Paschuck by emailing [email protected] as soon as possible.

Five open books stack on top of each other with the pages of the top book open like a fan.
