Today, TIME announced the inaugural TIME100 Health list, recognizing the 100 most influential people in health.
To create this list, TIME reporters and editors spent months consulting sources and experts from around the world to select the 100 most influential people in health today. The result is TIME100 Health, a community of scientists, physicians, advocates, educators, policy makers, and other leaders from a variety of industries who create tangible, authentic change for a healthier world. I'm dedicated to that.
In a letter to readers, TIME Editor-in-Chief Sam Jacobs wrote: In the midst of a golden age of achievement and change… Health innovations like this list reflect humanity at its best. In other words, people use all their wisdom and ingenuity to help each other improve their lives… Whether you're familiar with the people on this list or reading about them for the first time, their work is changing the lives of people in your community and around the world. ” https://bit.ly/4dnSJ7a
