SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 14, 2005--Pulitzer Prize-winning author Laurie Garrett will be the keynote speaker at Seattle Biomedical Research Institute's Passport to Global Health Celebration, set for 5:30-8:30 p.m., April 20, at the Fairmont Olympic Hotel. The event will increase awareness of infectious disease research as a means to improve global health and raise funds to support pilot research projects at SBRI, the largest independent, non-profit research organization in the United States focused solely on infectious diseases.
