A timely reminder of what being a scientist in the face of public skepticism and mistrust of mainstream science in todays society. As Prof Gawande tells us the stakes are higher than ever and its how we think as scientists that will shape the future of our new graduates. As usual an excellent presentation. The final sentence that we are not merely battling over what it means to be scientists but what it means to be citizens is spot on!

Great speech by great writer! Seriousness with which he delivers deserves a serious thinking science community.
Amazing...every college grad should hear this...especially those graduating from business schools..
What an amazing speech!
Thanks Atul for enlightening us!
The speech is so amazing!!
Gawande for president! This man knows a lot and he is very certain! Hooray for science!
Great speech!
remarkable speech!
What is the point of showing the interpreter for two brief moments? That certainly wasn't for Sign Language users' access.
Probably simply to show she was there, expecting you to read the captions if needed
i was expecting a standing ovation but that lukewarm response ;-;
where can I find the transription?
