In this episode, I spoke with Dr. Sandro Galea, Dean and Robert A. Knox Professor at Boston University School of Public Health. We discussed his extensive career, spanning numerous disciplines including clinical medicine, global health, and public health research with a focus on epidemiology and trauma. Our brief conversation touched on the importance of interdisciplinary approaches to understanding health, the commercial determinants of health, lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic, and the role of health in public discourse.
