Nancy Snyderman
Physician, author and former broadcast journalist Nancy Snyderman, MD, will share insights from her storied career covering global health and medicine in a conversation Jan. 27 with Paul Costello, Stanford Medicine’s chief communications officer.
Snyderman will soon join Stanford as a consulting professor in the School of Medicine. She is the former chief medical editor at NBC News and previously worked as a consumer education executive at Johnson & Johnson and as a medical correspondent at ABC News.
She has reported on wide-ranging issues from all over the globe and has earned some of broadcast journalism’s most distinguished honors, including Emmy Awards and Edward R. Murrow Awards.
She began her career as a head and neck surgeon, one of the first women in the United States to specialize in the field, and her medical work has been published extensively in peer-reviewed journals.
Snyderman’s discussion is part of the Conversations in Global Health seminar series, organized by Stanford’s Center for Innovation in Global Health.
Stanford Medicine integrates research, medical education and health care at its three institutions - Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford Health Care (formerly Stanford Hospital & Clinics), and Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford.
