Join us for an engaging conversation between Dr. Tom Frieden, former Director of the CDC and Commissioner of the New York City Health Department, and Dr. David Blumenthal, Professor of the Practice of Public Health and Health Policy, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. 

Dr. Frieden has spent his career strengthening health systems around the world—from transforming tuberculosis care in India and stopping the largest U.S. outbreak of multidrug-resistant TB, to reducing tobacco use and leading responses to Ebola and other deadly epidemics.

Today, he leads Resolve to Save Lives, partnering with more than 50 countries to address the world’s most urgent health threats. His new book, The Formula for Better Health: How to Save Millions of Lives—Including Your Own, distills practical, evidence-based lessons that empower individuals, communities, and policymakers to create a healthier future. All book proceeds support global health organizations and projects.

This event is co-sponsored by the Department of Health Policy and Management at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and the Harvard Global Health Institute.
