As part of Stanford Biodesign's Innovation & Health Equity Discussion Series, Els Torreele, Founding Director of æqua, will discuss how policy influences market forces and why this leaves certain areas in healthcare neglected. She will challenge us with a new paradigm for innovation as a public good and provide a different perspective on how we can use the potential of advances in science to serve all who need it, not just those who can afford it. She is a global health equity and medical innovation expert with over 20 years of combined experience in biomedical research, pharmaceutical R&D, policy analysis and research, and advocacy towards equitable access to health technologies.
