This Event Has Been Postponed

Following UCSF's Interim Policy on Large Events and Gatherings enacted to limit the community transmission of COVID-19, the 2020 forum has been postponed.


We all benefit from the dedication, sacrifice, and persistence of Black Scientists and Healthcare Professionals. As the second part of our three-part Kente Collaboratory series, this March we are celebrating Black excellence of the present day by honoring Black Scholars whose program of research, clinical practice, policy, and teaching aligns with or advances our mission, values, and vision. With a keynote address by Dr. Karen Scott, we are thrilled to honor Black Scholars from the departments of Family Health Care Nursing, Biostatistics and Epidemiology, Pediatrics, and Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences in a pinning ceremony in recognition of their work. Please join us as we lift up the profound impact of Black leaders in science within our UCSF community!

Keynote Speakers: Dr. Karen A. Scott and Dr. Karen A. Scott, MD, MPH, FACOG

We are proud to co-sponsor this event with the California Preterm Birth Initiative
