Universities have long been engines of innovation and national progress — including breakthroughs in penicillin production in the 1940s, lifesaving medical research, and public policy reform. This week at Aspen Ideas: Health, President Maurie McInnis joined Brett Zbar, managing director and global head of life sciences at General Atlantic, and David Leonhardt, editorial director for New York Times Opinion, for a conversation on how partnerships between higher education, government, and industry can drive the next generation of health innovation — and ensure its benefits reach everyone. The aspenideas panel reflected on Yale’s long-standing collaborations, its economic and public health impact today, and the important role universities play in shaping talent, advancing discovery, and delivering solutions to global challenges. #Yale #AspenIdeasHealth
