ROTARY LUNCHEON August 16, 2016: Jonas Salk and the Conquest of Polio

Dr. Charlotte Jacobs' talk about Jonas Salk and the effort to eliminate Polio is sure to be riveting. She'll tell us how despite becoming a hero among the general public for discovering a polio vaccine, he was shunned most research scientists, the one group whose adulation he craved. Jonas Salk had all but eradicated a crippling disease, and the scientific community seemingly never forgave him.
