Taking Inspiration from Art Created by a Patients Granddaughter

Posted onSeptember 20th, 2024byDr. Monica M. Bertagnolli

I have a specific ritual when moving into a new office, as I did when I became NIH Director in 2023: I hang a very special framed screen print on the wall. This piece of art has followed me through several different offices, representing different positions I have held as a cancer surgeon, researcher, and educator. Its always the first thing I want to see as I settle into a new workplace. It serves as an inspiration for my work, for what so many of us involved in health care strive to do. Id like to take this opportunity to tell you the story behind it.
