Episode 51: ACM-AMIA Joint Podcast Series with Monica Bertagnolli 06/16/2026

How does someone go from studying engineering at Princeton to leading the NIH? What can that journey teach the informatics community? This collaboration between Women in AMIA and the ACM ByteCast explores just that.

In the newest episode of the ACM-AMIA Joint Podcast Series, hosts Sabrina Hsueh and Li Zhou sit down with Dr. Monica Bertagnolli — surgical oncologist, physician-scientist, and the first woman elected President of the National Academy of Medicine. She's also served as the 17th Director of the NIH and the 16th Director of the National Cancer Institute.

Their conversation traces her path from engineering to cancer surgery to national leadership, and what it reveals about the data, decisions, and people shaping the future of health.
