This year’s Love Data Week theme — “Where’s the Data?” — explores how people across disciplines create, connect, and communicate data in meaningful ways. Drawing on Dean Galea’s work at the intersection of population health, equity, and narrative, he will share his perspective on how data can better serve human flourishing. His work has shaped how institutions connect evidence to meaning and action.

Sandro Galea, MD, DrPH, is the inaugural Margaret C. Ryan Dean of the newly established Washington University in St. Louis School of Public Health, the Eugene S. and Constance Kahn Distinguished Professor in Public Health, and vice provost for interdisciplinary initiatives.

As dean of WashU’s first new school in 100 years, Galea will lead the building of a world-class academic institution that will work in myriad ways to advance solutions to pressing, real-world issues involving infectious disease; mental, global and environmental health; dissemination and implementation science; and other key areas of public health.

A population health scientist and physician, Galea comes to WashU from Boston University School of Public Health, where he was the Robert A. Knox Professor and dean for a decade. Prior to that, he served as the Gelman Professor and Chair of the Department of Epidemiology at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health. He also previously held academic and leadership positions at the University of Michigan and at the New York Academy of Medicine.
