In this episode, we hear from Dr. Niraj Mehta, founder of the Cupcake Man Project at Ben Taub, pioneer of the physician-led physical exam rounds for the Internal Medicine clerkship, and personal advocate for the importance of preserving human connection in medicine. Over the next hour, he will discuss his initiatives and share his wisdom on the power of kinship in medicine, helping us make sense of what it means to heal and what we can do to build an intimate alliance with our patients and colleagues
