The event is in celebration of Filipino American History Month and Association of Filipino Scientists in America (AFSA)’s 7th year anniversary. We chose this theme to recognize the works of Filipino scientists in the community and to highlight how their heritage has really been an integral part of their journeys.

5:30pm doors open

6-7:30: Keynote by Dr. Christian Gloria (professor at Columbia University); Panel with 4 Filipino scientists in diverse fields and backgrounds (i.e. cancer research, medical student, science publishing, marine science)

7:30-8:30 Food and cultural performances to celebrate our Filipino heritage and to connect our community

This event is in collaboration with NYU Sulo and NYSEAN.
