Dear Café Scientifiquers, our next café will happen on Tuesday September 24th, 7:30pm at The Railway Club. Our speaker for the evening will be Ian Cromwell, a health economics researcher at the BC Cancer Agency. The title of his talk is:
The HPV Vaccine and You: What You Need to Know to Make an Informed Choice
With British Columbia recently approving the HPV vaccine in young women across the province, members of the public have been engaged in a conversation about the value and safety of the vaccine. Ian Cromwell will discuss the vaccine and introduce the available evidence supporting the policy. He will also address some of the specific concerns people in British Columbia have about the vaccine, with a grounding in the scientific literature.
