"A Time for Change: The Mutation Rate of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis in Active and Latent Disease," Sarah Fortune, M.D., Harvard School of Public Health. A research poster session and lunch begin at 11:15 a.m.

Fortune is recognized as a ground-breaking clinical mycobacterial bacteriologist. She received both the Doris Duke Medical Foundation Early Career Award and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Physician Scientist Early Career Development Award.
Her laboratory focuses on how M. tuberculosis uses specialized secretion systems and surface structures to mediate virulence in the infected host.
