We’re honored to have partnered with Yo-Yo Ma, the Blackfeet Nation and INDIGENOUS LED for a remarkable community gathering at Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park last week. This event celebrated the tribe’s tireless efforts to restore free-roaming bison—a species that holds immense cultural, spiritual and ecological significance to the Blackfeet.

We are pleased to share that Doris Duke Foundation participated in yesterday's Convening on Child Welfare Transformation hosted by the #WhiteHouse Domestic Policy Council. The summit highlighted many innovations central to our vision for a new prevention paradigm in child welfare, including disconnecting poverty from neglect, providing concrete and economic support to families, and fostering true partnerships with those directly impacted by current systems. During the summit, the White House and the Administration for Children and Families announced new policies to better engage and support families seeking prevention services. The four key areas of focus are Separating Poverty & Neglect; Prevention Services; Prioritizing Kin and Youth Needs; and Innovations and Research.

We are committed to a future where child well-being is paramount for the White House, Congress, and communities across the country. I am honored to announce Doris Duke Foundation's participation in today’s White House meeting on Child Welfare Transformation, led by the the White House Domestic Policy Council. This gathering will focus on a new vision for child welfare, aimed at helping families and kin remain together safely and to reshaping foster care to best serve our children. At Doris Duke Foundation, we have committed to this vision through Opt-In for Families (https://lnkd.in/efWH6nSw), a first-of-its-kind national demonstration of a preventative approach. I can't wait to learn from--and be inspired by--innovators from across the country at today's event. #Philanthropy #WhiteHouse #Childwelfare #leadership #DorisDukeFdn #childwellbeing

Society urgently needs more health research that improves people's health today. As said below, "we get the science we ask for." Philanthropy could be a leader in priming the research community to reimagine and chart its own path for impact without constraints of disciplinary funding and training paths. At the Doris Duke Foundation, we are ready to support the community to do so.

Thank you, Dean Mary E. Klotman M.D. and Michael Pencina , great example of clinical and research missions coming together to further health equity. “while industry can invest vast resources and expertise in new AI technologies, academia has a critical role to play in ensuring that what is being developed is trustworthy and has a greater societal benefit as its ultimate goal.” How do we apply these principles to legacy clinical algorithms that are not commercial products but nevertheless guide disease diagnosis and treatment? #EquityInEquations #EncodingEquity

I am excited to share a new invited commentary in the North Carolina Medical Journal, co-authored by Dean Mary E. Klotman M.D., and myself. Our piece outlines the critical role that academic medical centers, like Duke University School of Medicine, are poised to play as #healthAI is integrated into multiple facets of patient care, healthcare system operations, and medical education.
