A Healthy Conversation 1/30

This week, Stephanie Couturier, Regional CEO of the American Red Cross for Northern New England joined Steve and co-host Dr. Jeff Barkin to talk about the worst blood shortage the nation has suffered for a decade and what we can do to help.

Each week, Steve & Jeff engage national leaders and local experts from the clinical, business, scientific, academic, and political communities in an honest and upbeat dialogue about today’s healthcare realities and tomorrow’s developing opportunities. From emerging technologies to evolving policy work, personal fitness to public health, each show showcases the thinkers and explores the thinking that will help us change the conversation – and ultimately change the world.
