This week we speak for the entire episode with award winning author Patricia Meisol about her recent book entitled: A Heart Afire: Helen Brooke Taussig's Battle Against Heart Defects, Unsafe Drugs, and Injustice in Medicine. We review Dr. Taussig's early life and the impact it had on her life. Why was there friction between Drs. Taussig and Blalock? What was Dr. Taussig's role in the establishment of the most stringent drug testing rules in the world today? What would Dr. Taussig consider to be her greatest achievement? Was Dr. Taussig the first in our field to understand the notion of social determinants of health? Ms. Meisol reviews this and more in our wide ranging conversation about the extraordinary Professor Helen Taussig. We also share a brief conversation of Dr. Taussig from 1977, speaking about her role in the development of the BTT shunt.
For those interested, Ms. Meisel's book is available:
