Join us for a conversation with Rachel Jones, author of Grief on the Front Lines, who will address some of the most challenging aspects of healthcare and explore paths to a more supportive and sustainable working environment.

Drawing on her research and interviews, Rachel will discuss the manner in which doctors, nurses, and other healthcare workers are emotionally affected by the work that they do, and ways they’ve found to cope. This conversation will be moderated by LaTonya Trotter, PhD, MA, MPH, UW Associate Professor of Bioethics and Humanities.

Congratulations, Nadia Siddiqui, Bioethics Minor and Husky 100! We look forward to watching you make healthcare more equitable and just.

Nadia Siddiqui, Vancouver, WA
B.S.: Bioengineering and Bioethics
Year awarded 2021

My time at UW has been filled with opportunities to connect with others, learn from new experiences, and broaden my perspective. These opportunities have allowed me to see healthcare through different lenses: innovation in bioengineering, the social determinants of health in bioethics, and the need for expanding healthcare access through policymaking and outreach. I look forward to continuing my work at these intersections to make healthcare more equitable and to supporting others in my journey.
