Deep and Wide: The voyage to discover local and global health equity

Airdate: Wednesday, October 28, 2020 Duration: 01:00:40 Category: WALS - Wednesday Afternoon Lectures NIH Director’s Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series The Dyer Lecture is among the oldest, continuous speaker series at the NIH, established in 1950 in honor of former NIH director Rolla Eugene Dyer, M.D., a noted authority on infectious diseases. The lecture series features internationally renowned researchers who have contributed substantially to medical as well as biological knowledge of infectious diseases. The special guest on this episode of the Dyer Lecture is Dr. Lisa A. Cooper. Dr. Cooper is the Bloomberg Distinguished Professor, Health and Healthcare Equity, and the James F. Fries Professor of Medicine at the Johns Hopkins University. Born in Liberia, she witnessed the effects of social deprivation on the health of many of her fellow citizens and developed a passion for a career in medicine and public health. Her research at Johns Hopkins University has focused on the crisis of inequity in medical care. Dr. Cooper was one of the first scientists to document disparities in the quality of relationships between physicians and patients from socially at-risk groups. A recipient of a MacArthur "Genius" Award, she has designed innovative interventions targeting physicians' communication skills, patients' self-management skills, and healthcare organizations' ability to address needs of populations experiencing health disparities. Dr. Cooper is now applying these techniques in real time during the COVID-19 pandemic, which is disproportionally affecting marginalized communities, including African American and Hispanic communities in her adopted hometown of Baltimore. Such local outreach will be a focus of her WALS lecture. Author: Lisa A. Cooper, M.D., M.P.H., Johns Hopkins University Permanent link: https://videocast.nih.gov/watch=36083
