SUMMARY:Care For The Polis: Germ City Exhibition: A Conversation on 
 Cities\, Health\, and Public Humanities
DESCRIPTION:Humans and microbes have always co-habited\, and their relati
 onship has had a profound influence on human history—espec
 ially in cities\, the crossroads of the movements of people\, 
 goods\, and germs. Dr. Rebecca Hayes Jacobs will discuss her 
 work as co-curator of Germ City: Microbes and the Metropoli
 s\, a 2018 exhibition at the City Museum of New York that e
 xplored the complex story of the city's long battle against 
 infectious disease—a fight involving government\, urban pla
 nners\, medical professionals\, businesses\, and activists.  P
 lanned to mark the centennial of the Spanish Flu pandemic\, 
 the show was organized in collaboration with The New York Ac
 ademy of Medicine and Wellcome as part of the latter's inter
 national project Contagious Cities\, a multi-city research a
 nd public humanities porject that explored the interplay of 
 people and pathogens in urban contexts.
