Opening Doors
Established in 2025, the “Opening Doors” series presents conversations with HMS faculty members who over time have made significant contributions to Harvard Medical School. These conversations prompt faculty to share their professional journey including how they first joined the HMS community, changes they have seen at HMS in the decades since their arrival, and advice for recognizing opportunities and dealing with challenges in the future.
