Caltech Global Health Association

The Caltech Global Health Association meets to discuss health issues that affect the world, particularly epidemics such as HIV and Malaria. We explore the science behind these diseases, and discuss potential solutions to them, both medical and social. We periodically invite speakers to inform us on these topics. We also try to connect with people in developing nations via the internet, in order to get a closer view of the situation in countries far from our own. Our ultimate goal is to find ways to help people, both in developing countries and here in the United States, to escape the grip of crippling disease.

Our first event will be a symposium on HIV and Malaria, to take place on May 3 in Ramo Auditorium from 10am-1pm. For more details, see: http://www.geanco.org/symposium.html.

If you have any questions, please contact our Chair, Christina Theodoris, or our Secretary, Chess Stetson.
