Da Yale torna al Collegio Nuovo la prof. Serap Aksoy epidemiologa ed entomologa della Yale School of Public Health, membro della National Academy of Sciences, prestigioso network di scienziati, fra cui, dalla fondazione a fine Ottocento, oltre 500 premi Nobel.
Il corso di occuperà di salute globale, anzi di “One Health”, tema su cui la Professoressa era intervenuta un paio di anni fa in una conferenza al Nuovo introdotta dalla Prof. Anna Malacrida.
