Presidential address given at the 2022 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, November 2, 2022.
Descrição: Bausch discuss the nexus of tropical medicine and human rights. The idea of tropical medicine and human rights being intertwined is not exactly new. A review of ASTMH Presidents' Addresses over the last decade shows that most focused on activism more than science and research. Human rights were mentioned in four of the last five ASTMH Presidents' Addresses, and she believes quite a few more before that. Human rights is important as a framework for tropical medicine because, while the contribution of science to many of these health indicator gains is undeniable, in many domains we are reaching the limits of science's power.
