“Bridging Population Health at Duke” was the title of the inaugural Population Health Symposium spearheaded by Health Affairs Chancellor Eugene Washington. Keynote speaker Clay Johnston, dean of the new Dell School of Medicine at the University of Texas at Austin, kicked off the event. Paula Tanabe, discussing her Sickle Cell Disease research, was among a panel of speakers sharing approaches to “Bridging (Population Health) Management and Science.” Donna Biederman served on the event planning group that began coordinating the event nearly a year prior. Over 200 clinicians, administrators, and program staff attended the event.
