Afterlives of the Zika epidemic in Colombia

Vital Futures Initiative of the Duke Global Health Institute, 18th September 2025

I was invited to speak at the virtual symposium A decade of Zika: Afterlives of an Epidemic, Lessons for Global Health. The event brought together researchers and families raising children with Congenital Zika Syndrome to reflect on the successes and challenges of the ten years since Zika was first detected in Brazil and the role of social sciences in furthering our understanding of the epidemic.
