Your skin—we often call it (affectionately, of course) your birthday suit—is your body’s largest organ, weighing in at roughly eight pounds and covering about 22 square feet.
Learn how to protect your skin from the environment and sun in a presentation by Dr. Gregory Baum from noon to 12:30 p.m. on Wednesday, June 12, at 114 Bird Library. Dr. Baum will also discuss what you should look out for when you notice changes to your skin. Baum’s 30-minute presentation will be followed by an optional 20-minute question and answer period.
