The National Academy of Medicine (NAM) has recognized Christina Roberto, PhD, the Mitchell J. Blutt and Margo Krody Blutt Presidential Associate Professor of Health Policy at the University of Pennsylvania, as one of 10 Emerging Leaders in Health and Medicine Scholars.
The Emerging Leaders in Health and Medicine Program is an initiative that allows scholars to “collaborate with the NAM and its members across fields of expertise to advance science, combat persistent challenges in health and medicine, and spark transformative change to improve health for all,” according to a NAM press release.
Dr. Roberto and the rest of the 2021 scholar class will participate in a variety of activities over a 3-year term, including attending meetings, publishing NAM perspectives, and planning a leaders forum.
