Latest take from our CEO @hjcooper12 and our Director of Research & Science @dbeangreen on how the current narrative on #ai may be crowding out the benefits for #globalhealth medium.com/cooper-smith/the-…

Global health, food security, #pepfar - all topics we discuss daily @CooperSmithOrg were front and center at today’s talk by @SecBlinken at @UTAustin. Hook ‘em horns!

via @NYTOpinion Tyler @smith_01010100 and I wrote a letter urging for #PEPFAR’s reauthorization. Beyond saving over 25 million lives, @PEPFAR has ushered in a culture of accountability across global health. It is tax payer dollars well spent. nytimes.com/2023/09/26/opini…

This is really a great article. Currently, we're working on a project that's directly in line with this... it may take some months to fine-tune the models to provide more accurate information about the Malawian context, but if all goes well, it can have a great impact

Here are some examples of how #AI will change healthcare in low- and middle-income countries. From closing vaccine coverage gaps to improving antimictobial resistance and empowering health workers etc. @CooperSmithOrg medium.com/cooper-smith/the-…

The scale of climate-related disaster in Southern Africa is setting in as I've talked with colleagues in the region this week. The latest cyclone is exacerbating the ongoing cholera outbreak & interrupting HIV, TB & malaria programs, just as health systems recover from COVID-19.
Tropical Storm Freddy claimed more than a 100 lives in Malawi and Mozambique as it as it ripped through southern Africa for the second time in a month reut.rs/3mQPH5D
Thinking of our Malawian colleagues during this incredibly challenging time. We just donated $5000 to the @RotaryLimbe to support the response. Please consider supporting their efforts #CycloneFreddyMalawi

Well said @CharlesBHolmes. Huge privilege to work with you too!
Every #InternationalWomansDay I reflect on women leaders, colleagues & friends I’ve had the privilege of working closely with over the years. But also women I’ve met who are struggling to overcome societal barriers to survive. Glad to be fighting together for greater equity.🙌

It’s inconceivable today to imagine a world w/o @GlobalFund. It has provided hope & delivered on the promise of partnership btw nations & solidarity of mankind.
As I write in @thehill today, the story of @GlobalFund is also a deeply personal one for me
