Please RSVP.\n\nMcKesson Foundation Health Equity Speaker Series\nDisparities in health and healthcare have been are prevalent, particularly in underserved or minority communities, as a result of a variety of factors such as birthplace, housing, education, race, age, sexual identity and other nonmedical factors. These factors are commonly referred to as the social determinants of health (SDOH). As a result of SDOH, quality healthcare and treatment can be difficult to access for many who don\u2019t fall into the dominant group and must confront barriers to receive treatment.\n\nExamples of barriers to adequate healthcare treatment include poverty, lack of access to quality education or positive social activities, and unhealthy environmental factors. These factors must be addressed in order to achieve positive health outcomes and equity in access to healthcare and treatment for all. To help illuminate and educate around issues involving social determinants of health, the College of Pharmacy and the McKesson Foundation have teamed up to launch the McKesson Foundation Health Equity Speaker Series.\n\nFor the past two years the College of Pharmacy at the University of Michigan in partnership with the McKesson Foundation has hosted a speaker series based on the topic of health equity. The McKesson Foundation is dedicated to advancing health outcomes for all with the mission to removing barriers to quality healthcare across the country, especially for vulnerable and underserved communities. The College of Pharmacy also has a longstanding history of fighting to address addressing disparities in healthcare and is a leader in the fight for equitable healthcare for all individuals. This alignment in values and mission of both organizations led to the provision awarding of a grant to resulted in the College of Pharmacy being awarded a grant in 2022 to launch what we now call the McKesson Foundation Health Equity Speaker Series, with the goal of educating the UM community and inspiring those around us to find solutions that address inequities in healthcare and beyond.\n\nAbout our Funder, the McKesson Foundation\nThe McKesson Foundation is a charitable organization dedicated to improving health outcomes for vulnerable and underserved populations. It focuses on initiatives that address healthcare disparities, promote patient-centered care, and support cancer care and survivorship. Through grants, partnerships, and employee-driven giving programs, the foundation aims to foster innovative solutions that enhance community health and well-being.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"153747-21916272@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/153747", "building_id":"null", "building_name":"Off Campus Location", "campus_maps_id":"1", "room":"College of Pharmacy, PHARM 2000", "location_name":"1007 E.

Next, I will examine various models on how long-term vaccine-induced antibody responses are maintained including the role of memory B cells, long-lived plasma cells, TLR agonist adjuvants, and the role of antigen structure and an antigenic threshold in determining the duration of immunological memory. The presentation will end with an analysis of immunity following tetanus\/diphtheria vaccination, in which I propose that we may no longer need to recommend booster vaccinations for adults once they have completed their full childhood vaccination series. This modest change to the U.S. vaccination schedule could save up to $1 billion annually without reducing the protection afforded by these two important legacy vaccines.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"154583-21918000@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/154583", "building_id":"null", "building_name":"North Campus Research Complex Building 10", "campus_maps_id":"615", "room":"NCRC Building 10, Research Auditorium", "location_name":"North Campus Research Complex Building 10", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Vaccine","Pharmacy","Free","Discussion","All Majors Welcome"], "website":"https:\/\/pharmacy.umich.edu\/events\/wagner-lectureship-series-in-the-pharmaceutical-sciences-dr-mark-slifka-ph-d\/", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"U-M College of Pharmacy", "group_id":"3527", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/event_154583_original-1.jpg", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/11\/crop-event_154583_original-1.jpg" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21918000 } , "154059-21917107": { "datetime_modified":"20261026T111814", "datetime_start":"20261121T080000", "datetime_end":"20261121T103000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-11-21", "date_end":"2026-11-21", "time_start":"08:00:00", "time_end":"10:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"U-M College of Pharmacy Sponsored Flu Vaccine Clinic", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"U-M College of Pharmacy Sponsored Flu Vaccine Clinic", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Community Service", "event_type_id":"4", "description":"U-M College of Pharmacy Community Health and Engagement\nFrom hosting flu vaccine clinics to administering safe medication disposal events, our students actively participate in community service.\n\nEvent Information:\n\nThe University of Michigan College of Pharmacy (U-M CoP) is partnering with the Novi Tawheed Center Food Pantry to offer flu vaccines.
