Join veteran medical historian, Mike Magee, MD, as he unlocks the secrets of immunology (and immunotherapy) and their potential to change the course of human health. If you attended the single lecture on this topic that he gave in spring 2026, you’ll know it’s a subject that is worth a deeper dive, this time in three sessions.
Mike Magee, MD, is a medical historian and journalist, and the author of Code Blue: Inside the Medical Industrial Complex (Atlantic Monthly Press, 2019). He has taught at the Presidents’ College and the C. Everett Koop Institute at Dartmouth’s Geisel School of Medicine and Jefferson Medical College. He was also an Honorary Master Scholar at the N.Y.U. School of Medicine and the 2008 Distinguished Alumnus award recipient from the University of North Carolina School of Medicine. He lives in West Hartford, CT, and is the editor of the weekly blog Health Commentary.org.
