AMSA National Convention Keynote Speaker Sheri Fink MD PhD

I mentioned in my last blog that I'll be speaking at the American Medical Student Association's Annual Convention in New Orleans on March 7 at 1pm. I also wanted to point out that a former colleague of mine Sheri Fink will be a keynote speaker at the event.

Sheri is a  talented professional and all around-nice person. She won the Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting for her piece on the deadly choices faced at a New Orleans hospital post-Hurricane Katrina. Sheri's latest book "Five Days at Memorial: Life and Death in a Storm-Ravaged Hospital" was named as a top ten book by the New York Times.

Sheri was interviewed on the Daily Show. You can watch the segment here.
