Harvard Health Rounds
A monthly meetup on challenging health issues and solutions.
Healthcare is a powerhouse in Birmingham, yet the city and state also have some of the toughest healthcare challenges in the nation. That is why, as part of the overall educational mission of the Harvard Club, we are launching Health Rounds to explore and discuss health and health management challenges that demand innovation solutions.
This free, monthly event provides a forum for learning about key health-related problems that require innovative solutions, and for encouraging such solutions. The target group is Harvard alumni and students interested in health problems and finding solutions; invited guests, including students, faculty, administrators, entrepreneurs, investors, and health care practitioners. Special interest groups around specific health areas could emerge. A speaker opens the discussion, followed by networking. Check-in begins at 5:15 PM; Speaker at 5:30 sharp. Unless otherwise scheduled, Health Rounds will be held on the third Tuesday of each month. Please reserve your seat by sending an email to John Whitman or going to Eventbrite for a free ticket.
The speaker is Bevin Tomlin of Alabama Power. Bevin Tomlin works in the Economic and Community Development department at Alabama Power. Her team focuses on helping communities prepare for economic growth through strategic planning and focusing on human, physical and financial capital. She’s been with Alabama Power for almost 8 years with varying roles and responsibilities.
The talk by Stephen M. Taylor, MD, MPH on opioids and addiction treatment is postponed to a future time.
