Lessons from the past, hope for the future
As the University prepares to confer degrees on the Class of 2020, we speak with the class valedictorian, Brady Stiller, about this unique moment in Notre Dame history.
Connection in the time of pandemic
In this episode, we examine two connections shown in dramatic ways during the COVID-19 pandemic. First, the connection between humankind and the planet: We speak with a climate scientist on how the economic shut down is impacting the planet, and how coronavirus could be a template for the fight against climate change.
Then, we explore the connection between doctor and patient, and how the science of compassion is on full display.
Guests:
Jason McLachlan, associate director of biological sciences
Dominic Vachon; John G. Sheeny, M.D., Director of the Ruth M. Hillebrand Center for Compassionate Care
