Join us for the first SHC Noon Lecture of the 2024-2025 year featuring Dr. David J. Wolf! The lecture will be held Wednesday, September 18, 2024, at 12pm on Zoom. Dr. Wolf entered medical school in 1969. Fifty-two years later he retired from the clinical practice of hematology and medical oncology. This talk describes the extraordinary changes in medicine that he experienced and observed during his professional career at Weill Cornell University Medical College and on the staff of the New York-Presbyterian Hospital. The talk is in part an autobiographical account of how medical school and post-graduate training, the hospital, the clinical practice of hematology and medical oncology, and the healthcare system have evolved.
