The Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health is honored to welcome Atul Gawande for a virtual conversation with Dean Ellen MacKenzie.

The discussion will cover a range of topics, including the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, global vaccination efforts, strengthening primary care and health systems around the world through public-private partnerships and other means, preparing for future public health threats, how young people can get involved in public health, the importance of trust in public health information, and how Gawande’s career in global public health informs his work at USAID.
