Date & Location
Tuesday, April 5, 2022, 12:00 AM - Saturday, April 5, 2025, 12:00 AM PST

Overview
In this episode, Dr. Sherry Wren focuses on humanitarian aid in low to middle resource countries. Dr. Wren is very involved in humanitarian surgery and global surgery. She works and manages educational partnerships in Sub-Saharan Africa and is a faculty fellow of the Stanford Center for Innovation and Global Health. Dr. Wren became interested in humanitarian work in college and worked as a surgeon with Doctors Without Borders in Africa. Not only are infectious diseases of concern in low income countries, but so are non-communicable diseases. Death from non-communicable diseases have overtaken deaths from infectious diseases - 11% of the global burden of disease can be treated with surgery. Dr. Wren shares her experiences, lessons learned and projects impacting humanitarian care around the world.
