Unsealing the Science: What the Public can Learn from Internal Chemical Industry Documents

A panel discussion with the people who brought the three new chemical industry documents collections to the UCSF library will explore what the documents mean for public health and the perils they faced in making these documents public. Professor Stanton Glantz, who began the library with the first collection of internal tobacco industry documents, will introduce the panel and explain how the documents have been used to inform litigation, documentaries and public policy decisions. The panel will be moderated by Dr. Tracey Woodruff, Professor and Director of the Program on Reproductive Health and the Environment and Co-Director of the UCSF Environmental Health Initiative, which has supported the development of the Chemical Industry Documents library.

Panel discussion from 3:30-5:30 at Cole Hall Auditorium, UCSF Parnassus Campus.
