Dr. Tara Chang, MD, is a nephrologist and a Satellite Healthcare research grant recipient who possesses three qualities I really admire: Curiosity, asking the big “why not?” questions; creativity, the kind you apply to problem solving; plus she’s known as a great collaborator and an inspiring partner.

Dr. Chang is an Assistant Professor of Medicine at the Stanford University Medical Center in Palo Alto, California. Let’s lead into our interview with Dr. Chang with a one-minute animated video she produced to support her successful grant proposal.
