Colonialism in Global Surgery
We will be kicking off our seminar series by hearing from two experts in the domains of colonialism in global surgery. How does a colonial legacy affect research and training today? How can we be mindful of a colonial legacy in academia. Moderated by Barnabus Alayande, Assistant Professor of Global surgery at UGHE.
