Roseman University this winter will host its Neighborhood Health Series, community educational events where experts will discuss a variety of health and wellness topics.

The sessions, which are free and open to the public, will begin with “The Stories Your DNA Tells About You: From Your Ancestry to How You Might Respond to Medications,” presented by Dr. David Rawlins, assistant dean for research and associate professor for Roseman’s College of Pharmacy. It will take place at 5:30 p.m. Jan. 19 at the Summerlin campus, 1 Breakthrough Way.

The series continues with “Innovations and Best Practices in Dental and Pediatric Dentistry” on Feb. 16 and “Emerging Infectious Diseases and the Vaccines That Prevent Them” on March 16.
