Naomi D. Neufeld, FACE ‘69 MSS’71 RES’, P’99, P’03, president, Neufeld Medical Group and professor of pediatrics at UCLA, will discuss the multitude of problems associated with childhood obesity. Childhood obesity has transcended the healthcare system to become a touchstone in the social, economic, and political conversations in our country. Failure to deal with this problem will shape the future of medical care and will have significant consequences for our national security, our federal budget and our society. This forum begins at 3:30 p.m. in Sidney E. Frank Hall for Life Sciences, Nathan Marcuvitz Auditorium, Room 220. http://www.brown.edu/web/commencement/2011/content/forums.html
