Description

As a first-generation Chinese-American, whose parents left China during the communist revolution, Kathryn Chu, MD, knew early on in life that being raised in an upper middle class family in the Midwestern United States was “an accident of birth.” This knowledge propelled her into a career in global health, specifically humanitarian and global surgery. Now, as the Director of the Centre for Global Surgery at Stellenbosch University in South Africa, Chu is dedicated to shaping a world with equitable access to quality surgical care for all. In this episode, Chu details her career path to global health and her goals for the future.
