Reimagining U.S. Public Health Preparedness and Response: A Seminar Series

COVID-19 challenged traditional ideas of “public health preparedness” and exposed tragic gaps in the way institutions and societies prepare for and respond to public health emergencies. The next century will be challenged by further pandemics, climate-driven crises, and other threats. This requires reimagining our approach to prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery from such threats. 

This seminar series will offer the perspectives of public health practitioners, community leaders and scholars in envisioning the transformation we need and describing the paths to make these changes a reality. 

This seminar series will offer five sessions (1/24, 2/7, 2/21, 3/6 and 4/3) all taking place between 4:00-5:15pm at the Mailman School of Public Health. Follow this link to register and to view a full schedule including session topics and speakers.

    Catalyzing change in next-gen health requires a shift in focus toward areas with the greatest potential for long-term impact, such as women’s health and emerging technologies. These fields offer powerful opportunities to improve health outcomes, drive innovation, and address longstanding gaps in care. By supporting new ideas and expanding access to overlooked areas of health, we can build a more inclusive and forward-looking future - one where innovation is guided by equity, science, and the needs of diverse communities. The program is a one-of-kind multi-disciplinary discussion and educational experience that brings the greatest minds from medicine, science, venture capital, capital allocation, business, and operations together to solve pain points of critical healthcare areas that require innovation. This event not only provides an overview of the healthcare innovation landscape, but also provides insight on the know-how or barriers in commercialization and scaling of health innovation across the U.S. SPEAKERS Lily Jin (Moderator), Operating Partner, Marathon Venture Partners Camilla Languille, Co-Chief Executive Officer, Mubadala Private Equity Charlotte Xia, Investor, Fusion Fund
