A panel of experts from the Bush School of Government and Public Service at Texas A&M University will discuss the latest developments of the coronavirus outbreak on Monday, March 2 as part of the school’s “What’s Next?” series.

Panelists will share their perspectives on the virus as well as what the next possible steps might be. The panel will consist of Dr. Gerald Parker, director of the Pandemic and Biosecurity Policy Program; professor Andrew Natsios, director of the Scowcroft Institute of International Affairs; and Christine Crudo Blackburn, deputy director of the Pandemic and Biosecurity Policy Program.

The event will be held at Rudder Forum on the Texas A&M campus from 5:30 – 6:30 p.m.

The timing and topics for the “What’s Next?” series are driven by current events and public interest. This type of rapid-response series is designed to address events in real time, as they occur, with faculty from the Bush School discussing policy issues and options that are available to decision-makers.

Bush School Dean Mark Welsh noted that the Bush School has experts in many areas of government policy who can help people understand what options are possible after a major news event.

The series is open to the public, and no registration is required. For more information on the March 2 event visit the Bush School website.
