Dr. Davies also will be joined by guests Allie Daro, fourth-year UNMC College of Medicine student and incoming student senate president/University of Nebraska student regent, and Alex Martinez, incoming student senate vice president and third-year UNMC College of Pharmacy student.
The all-campus forum will take place from noon to 12:50 p.m. in the Maurer Center for Public Health, Room 3013, on the Omaha campus. The forum also will be available via Zoom; the link can be found on the campus intranet.
