My advice to first year students:

An understanding of the prevention of infectious diseases is incomplete without an international perspective.

What his TA has to say:

"Dr. Klugman has an amazing ability to articulate complex concepts in a very understandable, complete and fascinating way. He inspires critical thought and curiosity. He also happens to be one of the most pleasant and kind individuals on the 7th floor! He's a wealth of information and has published binders upon binders of articles. He's a great resource for those interested in the area of immunizations, infectious disease and South Africa. But he's also just a great person to know for his international experience." - Debbie Casanova
