The 2010 Pumphandle lecture

The 2010 JSS Pumphandle lecture will be given by Dr. David Nabarro, titled "Sapiens, Synergy, Solidarite, Success" on Wednesday 8 September 2010, from 5:15pm in the John Snow Hall at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, Keppel Street, London, WC1E 7HT. It will be followed by the Annual General Meeting of the John Snow Society at the John Snow Pub in Soho. Please circulate this poster to anybody you think may be interested in attending. We would also be interested in receiving photos of members in or visiting far off locations from the pump site, proudly displaying membership cards and/or mugs -- we will need photos for the "Society's Scrapbook" in the 2011 Broadsheet!
