Our first interview is an enlightening discussion with Sami Tannouri, MD, FACS, a passionate Jefferson Health surgeon who shared his profound insights and experiences from his frontline work treating victims of gun violence in Philadelphia. Watch part of the conversation here:
I had a great conversation with Dr. Tannouri about the gun violence epidemic in Philadelphia and what medical students and doctors can do to help. "You can die from a bullet wound 20 years after the fact...so it affects us everyday" Thank you for sharing Sami Tannouri, MD, FACS
We co-hosted a Gun Violence Prevention Advocacy Training with CeaseFirePA. Students practiced their "elevator pitch," learned how they can advocate for gun violence reform, and ended by writing letters to the PA Senate Judiciary Committee!
We are excited to introduce our next speaker for our Gun Violence Awareness Series, Dr. Xiao Chi Zhang (Xiao Chi Zhang).
It was wonderful to speak with Xiao Chi Zhang and hear his perspective on gun violence in Philadelphia and how we can help as medical students/ physicians. Thank you for sharing, Dr. Zhang! Be sure to listen to the full interview on instagram (Students Against the Gun Violence Epidemic (SAGE))
