How can the law help us better react to the next pandemic, or safeguard the food we eat and the medications we take? With numerous centers, programs, and clinics, including the Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics, the Center for Health Law Policy and Innovation, and the Food Law and Policy Clinic, Harvard Law offers countless opportunities to learn from experts about the law’s role in promoting individual and public health and safety.
