Multicultural and Global Health Symposium
The Multicultural and Global Health Symposium is an exciting annual event that brings together the UTHSC community, state leaders and international health experts to learn more about emerging topics in multicultural and global health. It is an opportunity to explore the breadth and depth of current research at UTHSC and around the world, network with colleagues, and celebrate the leadership and achievements of our leaders, faculty, and students.

These articles address current and sometimes controversial topics in public health, research, program development, and equity.
Members will alternate in choosing journal articles that are particularly interesting and that is likely to stimulate robust discussion. Manuscripts in preparation are also discussed. Journal club is open to all interested individuals.
