Join Dr. Chris Lemon, Associate Director and Faculty Co-Director of Clinical Programs at Johns Hopkins’s Institute for Planetary Health, for an inspiring exploration of the ways Earth’s unraveling ecosystems are shaping the future of medicine and public health.
Drawing on his frontline experience in emergency medicine during the COVID 19 crisis, Dr. Lemon emphasizes how climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution aren’t distant issues—they’re already influencing patient outcomes. This discussion will spotlight the Institute’s transdisciplinary efforts—from reshaping medical education to embedding sustainable practices in clinical settings—and elaborate on strategic goals for the years ahead. Attendees will gain insight into pragmatic, healthcare-centered solutions that address the planetary drivers of illness—because safeguarding human health begins with healing our planet.
