Announcing the USU Packard Lecture for 2025
Greetings.
We are thrilled to be welcoming Mr. Larry Ellison to the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences for the annual Packard Lecture on Wednesday April 23, 2025 at 2PM Eastern time.
Larry Ellison is chairman of Oracle Corporation and chief technology officer. He founded Oracle in 1977.
Please see the official flyer (attached). For those wanting to attend this event in person, advanced registration is required, as seating will be limited compared to what we anticipate will be great interest amongst people both within USU and other agencies and partners.
There will be a virtual option but we will send that link/info as we get closer to the event.
To register for in-person attendance, please use the QR code on the attached flyer.
Most sincerely,
Geeta Upadhyay PhD and Craig Shriver, MD
