In 2022, AcademyHealth is celebrating 40 years as the go-to professional organization for health services research (HSR). Our 40th anniversary is much more than a look back. Earlier this year we launched a series of interviews conducted by our president and CEO Dr. Lisa Simpson to spotlight new voices and ideas in our field. Her most recent guest is Dr. Daniel Dawes. Dr. Dawes is the Executive Director of the Satcher Health Leadership Institute at Morehouse School of Medicine. Watch the full video to hear Dr. Dawes talk about the history of HSR as it pertains to health equity, his professional experience working in HSR, and his thoughts on what’s next for the field.
