You are entering a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape shaped by innovation and AI, filled with both complexity and opportunity,” said Lewis S. Nelson, M.D., dean and chief of health affairs, Schmidt College of Medicine. “While technical knowledge will guide your decisions, it is human connection that will define your impact. Wherever your path leads, never lose sight of the question that matters most: not just ‘What’s wrong?’ but ‘What matters?’” |
