Gold President & CEO Dr. Richard I. Levin to retire in 2023 |
|
President and CEO Dr. Richard I. Levin will be retiring from the Gold Foundation in June 2023, after 11 distinguished years guiding the leading nonprofit organization of humanism in healthcare.
During his tenure, Rich has steered the Gold Foundation to a wide expansion into nursing, community health, and corporate healthcare, arenas that, along with the foundation’s traditional realm of medical education, help us together answer the critical threats facing humanism in healthcare.
His collaborative leadership has forged new and greater partnerships, launched prestigious awards, and helped solidify a stronger financial and visionary trajectory for the future of the Gold Foundation.

Golden Glimmer #10: Share your advice for new PGY-1s |
|
Medical school is over. Years of honing clinical and procedural skills, late nights of studying for USMLE step 1 and 2, residency interviews and Match Day celebrations are now behind these new doctors and a career as a healer is ahead.
As resident physicians enter their first year of internship, what advice would you offer? How can they prepare for the clinical learning curve? How can they take care of their mental health, family obligations, and hospital duties? Through the long hours, how do they stay connected to what drew them to a career as a physician?

GOLD HUMAN InSIGHT WEBINAR
Dr. Catherine Belling to discuss the film Drowning in the next NYU-Gold Webinar on Aug. 18, with CME available
|
|
Ethics," is set for Thursday, August 18, 5:30-6:30 p.m. ET .
Dr. Catherine Belling will explore how film—fiction or documentary—can enable clinicians to think through some of the ethical challenges posed by the health care needs of displaced persons, migrants, or refugees. Ultimately, powerful stories of shipwreck, drowning, and survival in film can provide strong metaphors for thinking about how to seek liveable answers to sometimes impossible questions.
Advancing Health Equity with Medical Humanities, a Gold Human InSight Webinar Series with NYU Grossman School of Medicine, is a Gold-NYU collaboration that spans 10 sessions, all of which offer CME credit and dialogue on the timely issue of health equity across the healthcare ecosystem.
