Dr. Greenhill is an Assistant Professor with 27 years of experience across the continuum of health services delivery. He has held various roles in executive leadership in US healthcare systems, and has expertise in global health systems. His global health credentials include applied research at the World Health Organization as well as at the health ministry-level in Belize, Sweden, Estonia, and Wales. In addition, he recently completed a post-doctoral Multilateral Diplomacy Immersion Program at the United Nations Office Geneva (UNOG), Palais des Nations in Switzerland.
The forces of globalization and international trade have reduced the time and distance between nations and therefore disease management. Trade pacts like the recent United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) underscore a need for US health executives and clinicians to become familiar with global health trends, lessons learned, and subsequent business and clinical impact. This lecture will discuss key topic areas related to global health such as innovations, workforce migration, and OneHealth.
This event is free and open to the public. No RSVP is necessary. Meals will be distributed on a first come, first serve basis.
