SUMMARY:Antisemitism in US Healthcare: Is History Repeating Itself?
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Poznansky and Dr. Park are founders and co-chairs of the newly formed Jewish Employee Resource Group (ERG) at Mass General Brigham. They took the initiative to organize the ERG in response to the growing antisemitism in the healthcare profession and recognized the need for Jewish doctors\, staff and faculty to be supported. They are dedicated to fostering community\, culture\, and support for the Jewish and Jewish affiliated community in healthcare in the face of growing antisemitism in healthcare and in the US in general. They will explain the challenges in healthcare today\, why there is a need for an employee resource group\, how they created one and what you can do as a patient\, carer in a hospital or center of healthcare or in your workplace. \nRegister→ \nAbout the Speakers\nMark C Poznansky\, MD\, PhD\, is a Professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School\, an attending physician in infectious diseases medicine at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH)\, and Director of the Vaccine and Immunotherapy Center at MGH.
