“We don't need physicians physically in the middle of every step that we take,” argues today's guest, former Buddhist monk and Harvard professor Dr. Michael Mina. “One of my goals has been to break down this massive wall that often exists, where physicians are the gatekeepers of people knowing about themselves in terms of their biology.” In this fascinating discussion with host Shiv Gaglani, hear how a tsunami tore Dr. Mina away from being a monk and led him to fusing together immunology and epidemiology, a skillset that proved especially valuable during the COVID-19 pandemic during which he created a large testing program that served much of the Eastern Seaboard. Tune in to discover how the eMed platform is empowering people to participate in their own healthcare by creating equitable access to actionable testing, and hear where Dr. Mina believes eMed can go from here, including involvement in clinical studies. Plus, hear his perspective on the difference between a career as an MD vs. a PhD, learn why holistic thinking is so important, and get his expert opinion on where the virus is heading.
