In a conversation presented by St. Louis Public Libraries and the Higher Education Channel, Will Ross, MD, MPH, associate dean for diversity, talks with his former student and mentee, Leana Wen, MD.
Dr. Wen is a CNN medical analyst, former Baltimore health commissioner and Washington University School of Medicine alum. Her new book, “Lifelines: A Doctor’s Journey in the Fight for Public Health,” is an insider’s account of public health and its crucial role―from opioid addiction to global pandemic―and an inspiring story of her journey from struggling immigrant to being one of Time’s 100 Most Influential People.
