You’re invited to attend the Radiant Ball, a luminous celebration that spotlights the first woman to win a Nobel Prize and one of the most important figures in the history of medicine.

Celebrate this life-saving advancement in science in our historic Mitchell Hall while learning about the nuanced history of medical technology and its impacts today.
