In this workshop, participants and facilitator Renk Kocturk will explore herbal remedies that may already be in your kitchen cabinet! The facilitator will discuss different kitchen spices and herbs that have many different benefits for our physical and mental health. Participants will learn how to infuse these herbs into teas, oils, and tinctures. For this workshop participants are welcome to take out their herbs & spices in their homes to be with them for the workshop. Please register online to attend.
  • Also on Tuesday, May 9, from 6:15 to 7:45 pm, Columbia’s Masters in Bioethics program will host the online event “Why Is there Confusion About Whether Masks Prevent COVID-19? Public Perceptions, Misperceptions, and the Messaging of Science.” A recent Cochrane report, purporting to show limited data to support mandates to use masks to prevent COVID-19, has sparked immense controversy, seized by many critics as evidence of failures by public health officials. Please join the Masters in Bioethics program to hear a panel of national experts analyze the report, its limitations, media coverage, and lessons we can learn as we move forward. Please register online to attend.
