Associate Professor Antonia Lyons speaks in Hamilton | 7pm Thursday 9 October | Waikato Musuem

In this Ten by Ten talk, Associate Professor Antonia Lyons (Massey University) will provide an overview of the current research and consider the implications on future alcohol policies and health promotion strategies. The talk is free and open to the general public.
