How does one decide who gets vital medical resources, particularly in emergency situations?

Team Kenan welcomes Cameron Wolfe to Do Lunch for a discussion about making difficult choices in medicine on March 22nd. Dr. Wolfe is a faculty member within the Department of Medicine, Division of Infectious Disease at Duke University Medical Center. He has a lead role in the Duke Preparedness and Response Center, where various projects have included rationing of vaccine for influenza pandemics and surge capacity management for the health system. The Center also was the lead organization from Duke responding to the earthquake in Haiti in 2010. Dr. Wolfe has worked extensively in both resource rich and poor settings, with a number of years spent practicing medicine in different countries in Africa and Asia prior to coming to Duke.

The event will be held in room 101 of the West Duke Building from noon to 1:30 pm.
