Cadavers, Germs, Genes and Anemia: A Whirlwind Tour of U-M Medical History

As part of the Nerd Nite event on the Annex stage at the Ann Arbor Summer Festival, Michigan Medicine science writer and history communicator Kara Gavin will give highlights from U-M medical history in a brief lighthearted talk.

The talk, part of the celebration of the U-M Medical School's 175th anniversary, is free and open to the public. Two other Nerd Nite speakers will also give presentations.

The Annex stage is on the Ingalls Mall near North University Ave., between Hill Auditorium and the Michigan League. See the festival map at https://www.a2sf.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/2025-top-of-the-park-map-UPDATED-2.pdf
