The Song of the Cell-Dr. Siddhartha Mukherjee with Judy Woodruff

RMWF is proud to welcome Dr. Siddhartha Mukherjee, author of The Emperor of All Maladies (winner of the Pulitzer Prize) and The Gene: An Intimate History (a number one New York Times bestseller) as he discusses his most spectacular book yet-an exploration of medicine and our radical new ability to manipulate cells. Rich with revelatory and exhilarating stories of scientists, doctors and the patients whose lives may be saved by their work, The Song of the Cell is Dr. Mukherjee’s third book in this extraordinary writer’s exploration of what it means to be human. Dr. Mukherjee is an assistant professor of medicine at Columbia University and a cancer physician and researcher. A Rhodes scholar, he graduated from Stanford University, University of Oxford and Harvard Medical School. He is joined in conversation by Judy Woodruff, former anchor and managing editor of the PBS NewsHour. Woodruff will host a new PBS series Judy Woodruff Presents: America at a Crossroads starting in 2023.
