Night Moves: Harold Varmus at the Free Library
Don't know what to do tonight? Don't worry, we've got you covered.
 |
Harold Varmus, the National Institute of Health's director under Bill Clinton, was quite the late bloomer. He didn't decide to study science until his first year in a Ph.D. program in English lit. Tonight, at the Free Library, he'll discuss how he was so self-unaware for so long (and how he got the balls to change course so late in the game), as well as the inner workings of big-budget science, his research on cancer-causing genes and stem cell research. Which, unsurprisingly, he digs.
Tue., July 14, 7:30 p.m., free, Free Library of Philadelphia, 1901 Vine St., 215-567-4341, library.phila.gov.
