Public Health Continuing Education (fwd)

[Laura Larsson]

Friends:

Thinking about improving your public health skills? You may wish to
consider our Summer Institute program. The work is intense, but the
instructors are excellent and you will learn a great deal about public
health. I've taken some of the courses for fun and can tell you I
enjoyed all of them, including the epidemiology course. 

And Seattle is beautiful when it's not raining...
