Best food at a conference. Ever.
Margaret Polaneczky, MDAssociate Professor, Weill Cornell Medical College

This was more than a conference. It was a convocation of folks who have diverse but common interests in advancing health care as a humanistic, inclusive, technology-infused, egalitarian process wherein the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
