SUMMARY:Stat Health Tech Summit
DESCRIPTION:Where health tech meets biotech \n\nBreakthroughs in health and medicine are not just biological — they’re technological. Join us for our next STAT Summit as we assemble top executives\, policymakers\, and researchers working at the intersection of health and technology. Learn how pharmaceutical companies are weaving the power of Moore’s law into their efforts to develop new medical advances. Hear from experts on how technology companies — from giants like Apple and Google to upstarts just emerging from stealth — are working to improve the lives of patients. And join discussions about how Covid-19 has and will continue to impact health tech breakthroughs. \nThe 2020 STAT Health Tech Summit will now be presented on September 9-10\, beginning at 1 p.m. ET each day.

SUMMARY:Viral BS: Medical Myths and Why We Fall For Them
DESCRIPTION:Sept. 10\, 7 p.m. ET \nCan your ZIP code predict when you will die? Will testosterone supplements boost your libido? Should you space out childhood vaccines? Does talcum powder cause cancer? Why do some doctors recommend e-cigarettes while other doctors recommend you stay away from them? Health information”•and misinformation”•is all around us\, and it can be hard to separate the two. A long history of unethical medical experiments and medical mistakes\, along with a host of celebrities spewing anti-science beliefs\, has left many wary of science and the scientists who say they should be trusted. How do we stay sane while unraveling the knots of fact and fiction to find out what we should really be concerned about\, and what we can laugh off? \nSeema Yasmin is an Emmy Award-winning journalist\, poet\, medical doctor and author. Yasmin served as an officer in the Epidemic Intelligence Service at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention where she investigated disease outbreaks and was principal investigator on a number of CDC studies. Yasmin trained in journalism at the University of Toronto and in medicine at the University of Cambridge. \nYasmin was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in breaking news in 2017 with a team from The Dallas Morning News and recipient of an Emmy for her reporting on neglected diseases. She received two grants from the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting. In 2017\, Yasmin was a John S. Knight Fellow in Journalism at Stanford University investigating the spread of health misinformation and disinformation during epidemics. Previously she was a science correspondent at The Dallas Morning News\, medical analyst for CNN\, and professor of public health at the University of Texas at Dallas. \nRegister here. \n
