Despite major medical advances, heart disease still claims a life every 30 seconds in the U.S. Dr. C. Michael Gibson believes prevention—starting in childhood—is key. From wearables and AI to statins and gene editing, he shares how we can outsmart cardiovascular disease with early detection, smarter care, and upstream interventions to reduce suffering and save lives.
Dr. BJ Miller invites us to rethink how we live, die, and care. A triple amputee and palliative care specialist, he champions a healthcare model rooted in dignity, empathy, and presence—not just procedures.

Despite decades of scientific progress, mental health outcomes in the U.S. remain dire. Dr. Thomas Insel, former NIMH director, argues it’s not a medical failure—but a systems one. True healing requires more than medication—it takes people, place, and purpose. With compassion and common sense, Insel shows that transforming mental health care is possible, and urgently needed.
Dr. Nir Barzilai says aging isn’t inevitable—it’s modifiable. From metformin and fasting to the genes of centenarians, he’s uncovering how we can live longer, healthier lives. Aging drives most diseases, and by targeting its biology, we can delay illness, extend vitality, and tap into what Barzilai calls the “longevity dividend” for individuals and society alike.
Dr. Kizzmekia Corbett helped develop the COVID-19 vaccine in record time—but her legacy goes beyond science. She fused immunology with public health to save lives and build trust in underserved communities. Now at Harvard, she continues breaking barriers, advancing pandemic preparedness, and inspiring the next generation of scientists with a powerful message: be yourself and serve boldly.
Dr. Eric Topol believes artificial intelligence won’t replace doctors—it will restore humanity to medicine.

Dr. Francis Collins, legendary geneticist and former NIH director, reflects on a career that changed medicine—from decoding the human genome to developing cures for sickle cell disease. Now focused on making breakthroughs more accessible, Dr. Collins advocates for precision health, faith-informed science, and grassroots communication to build trust, combat misinformation, and bring healing to all.
Dr. Laura Esserman is revolutionizing breast cancer screening by shifting from a one-size-fits-all model to precision prevention. Through groundbreaking studies like WISDOM and I-SPY, she’s proving that tailoring care to individual risk improves outcomes and reduces harm. Her bold call: screen smarter, treat only when needed, and listen deeply to patients—because radical change begins with common sense.
Dr. William Li wants to end diet culture—and replace it with science. In Eat to Beat Your Diet, he shows how food can ignite metabolism, burn harmful fat, and extend healthspan.
