This lecture, the 23rd in the series, is in memory of Reza Gandjei, who was a UCSF medicine resident in the 1990s and died far too young. Reza, who was both a Marshall and Rhodes Scholar while a student at Harvard Medical School, had a particular interest in healthcare ethics and policy, and so speakers in this series have been international experts in these topics.
This year’s Gandjei lecturer is Atul Gawande, MD, MPH. Atul is a surgeon at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, professor of surgery at Harvard Medical School, and professor of Health Policy and Management at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. He is the founder and chair of Ariadne Labs, a joint center for health systems innovation. He’s been a staff writer for The New Yorker since 1998 and has written four New York Times best-selling books: Complications, Better, The Checklist Manifesto, and Being Mortal. He is the winner of two National Magazine Awards, a MacArthur Fellowship, and the Lewis Thomas Award for writing about science. From 2018-20, he served as founding CEO of Haven, a healthcare start-up jointly sponsored by Amazon, JP Morgan, and Berkshire Hathaway. From November 2020-January 2021, he was a member of President-elect Biden’s Covid-19 Task Force. The session is moderated by UCSF Department of Medicine chair Bob Wachter.
