I want to recommend a great podcast episode: On her Visible Voices Podcast, my pal and former resident Dr. Resa Lewiss recently conducted a fantastic interview with another friend and former resident Dr. Shan Liu.
Resa co-authored the book “MicroSkills: Small Actions, Big Impact” and launched Visible Voices in 2020. Shan, who is on faculty at Harvard, wrote the children’s book Masked Hero about her great-grandfather Wu Lien-teh who designed a facemask that helped successfully contain the 1910 Manchurian plague and who was the first Chinese person ever nominated for a Nobel Prize in Medicine. It’s a fascinating story about public health, systemic racism, legacy, and important passion projects.
