Event Details
San Diego Public Library and the Naviaux Lab of UCSD invite you to a special screening of UNREST. This award-winning documentary tells the story of 28 year-old Jennifer Brea, who was working on her PhD at Harvard and just months away from marrying the love of her life when she gets a mysterious fever that leaves her bedridden and looking for answers. Disbelieved by doctors, yet determined to live, she turns her camera on herself and discovers a hidden world of millions confined to their homes and bedrooms by ME/CFS, commonly known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Following the screening Dr. Robert Naviaux of UCSD will provide a brief synopsis of the Naviaux Lab's current research.
Refreshments will be served.
