Dr. Larry Brilliant – “Meeting the Moment: How to Do Good When Times are Bad” at NextMed Health 2025. In this deeply moving and timely keynote, Dr. Larry Brilliant—epidemiologist, global health leader, and key figure in the eradication of smallpox—shares a powerful message on how to lead with purpose during turbulent times. Reflecting on pivotal moments from his career... including breaking fast with a Bangladeshi official to confirm the last case of smallpox—Dr. Brilliant weaves personal narrative with urgent insight on public health, global cooperation, science communication, and moral responsibility. With humor, wisdom, and humility, he discusses: 🔹 The global eradication of smallpox 🔹 The rise of anti-science and vaccine misinformation 🔹 Why the U.S. must stay engaged with the World Health Organization (WHO) 🔹 Stories behind the films Contagion and An Extra Life 🔹 How each of us can “do something good” in times of uncertainty 🔹 The connection between longevity, healthspan, and equity From reflections on history’s darkest hours to today’s public health crises, Dr. Brilliant offers a clear call to action: when the world feels overwhelming, help someone who has it worse. His talk ends with a hopeful challenge to all of us—find a way, big or small, to meet this moment. 🕊️ “Think of the poorest person you’ve ever met. If what you’re about to do helps them, you’re protected from ever doing harm again.” — Mahatma Gandhi, as shared by Dr. Brilliant 🌍 This is more than a talk—it’s a masterclass in moral clarity and global citizenship. — Subscribe to the NextMed Health channel for more talks from the forefront of medicine, innovation, and human-centered health.
