 Good morning, everybody. Can everybody hear me OK? All right. So as we make our way to our seats, let's get started. And the goal for today will certainly be to stay on time and maybe even try to stay ahead of time, if we can. My name is Ashish John, I'm the faculty director of the Harvard Global Health Institute. And I'm thrilled that you all made it here today. We're looking forward to what I think will be a very important day of a lot of hard work. I know it's a difficult day as well. Ashish, I want to take 30 seconds to acknowledge what I think a lot of us are feeling after the horrendous events of this past weekend in Orlando. And I think despite that, I think we have to understand that the work has to go on and we have a lot of work ahead of us. And as we reflect on what happened this past weekend, one of the things that we can try to do today is to try to make progress on some of these very important issues that bring us together and bind us together. So before I get into what today is going to be about, I want to actually just take 30 seconds and introduce our first sort of welcoming speaker, Dean Martha Minow, somebody who doesn't need a lot of introductions and I won't make it a long one, but I'll say very quickly a couple of things. She's not only the dean of the faculty of Harvard Law School, she's an expert on human rights. I think has been an extraordinary, both scholar and advocate for issues for people who are under-privileged and often disenfranchised. Beyond being a great scholar, I think there is broad consensus in the Harvard community that she has been an extraordinary leader of the Harvard Law School at a time when there have been some challenges at the law school. And her leadership and her steadfast vision has been something that I think we've all appreciated. So without further ado, Dean Minow, thank you for coming. Thank you for that very generous introduction. Once before I was dean, I did go to a restroom at another university and there was a by the hot air machine, was a little sign that said, press here for message from Provost. So I always think hard about any speaking engagement and I will be unbelievably brief. On the other hand, I think this topic is so important. I think, again in the light of the events of yesterday, I was thinking about a moment in the movie Silkwood where the victim of exposure to radioactivity is explaining this problem to her boyfriend and he says, just give me a problem I can solve. Actually, I think you are assembled here today to deal with a problem that can be solved. It's a hard one. But as I look around and the people in the room that I know have the capacity, I think, to do something extraordinary. And the people who I don't know, I know where you're from and I know that this meeting is an unusual opportunity to bring people together from different sectors, different points of view, different ideas and that's why I have great confidence that this will be a very meaningful event. It did lead me to look up the meaning of the word access in the dictionary. Access comes from a medieval term meaning approach which is also defined as being near. It's a more modern meaning to say that access involves a right or an authority to use something. And what I hope you do today and in your work together is make that transition from the medieval idea to the modern idea. And I, again, have great confidence that real progress will be made. The collaborations across academia, industry, civil society, philanthropy, the support from the Berkman Center Global Access Project, the office, the president, the provost initiative actually to get different parts of Harvard working together. If we did that, you can do anything. Thank you and best wishes. Thank you, Dean Minow. Brief, but very much to the point and indeed if we can get different parts of Harvard to work together, there's no shortage of what we can accomplish. So let me just take about two minutes and kind of frame where we are, what brings us together today. And then I'm gonna turn right over to Clinton Palfrey who's gonna moderate the first session. But I think as we start, I think we have to acknowledge the tension that brings us here, right? There is a tension, a tension of two communities who feel very strongly and deeply about what at times feels like competing set of ideas. One set of ideas is the real and practical need for more innovation. More innovation for treating diseases, more innovation for diagnostic tests. And innovation fundamentally is expensive. It costs a lot of money. And there is no shortcut that we know of to make innovation happen without resources. That I think is a very important part of the agenda and very important part of what drives attention because the second part, of course, the second opposing, what feels at times like opposing factors is that there is a very large proportion of the world's population that can't afford to pay for the innovation. That just can't afford it. Doesn't have the resources. And so the idea that innovation would only accrue and only benefit those who could afford to pay for it is an idea that we feel is both from a moral and economic and intellectual perspective unsustainable. And I think that is the tension that brings us here today. I think in putting this together, in putting together the background work that Quentin Terry Fisher, or Quentin Paul Fried, Terry Fisher have done, what they have tried to argue and what I at the Global Health Institute, I think all of us believe is that we have to move forward beyond this tension, beyond this point of contention that we get into and find practical solutions that both spur on innovation and yet ensure that there is broad access to that innovation so the whole world benefits from it. And that I think is the purpose of what brings us together. So we have a pretty rich agenda. And let me just lay out in very broad terms what we have. The morning session is really gonna be about identifying and discussing concrete best practices. There are things that we already know how to do and what to do and we have to figure out how to replicate those. We have to figure out how to scale them up. And that is gonna be, I think, a very important part of the day. And in the afternoon, we're gonna try to think outside the box, get beyond those concrete examples and think about what else we can do, where else we can go, how else we can push this envelope. We are not going to solve these issues today but I think as we were speaking just before this session started with Dean Minow and we were discussing what a win looks like. One of those wins is if we feel like we've taken a step forward in the conversation, if we have moved the ball forward, I think all of us will feel like today was a win. So that's in a big picture way the goal. I am very excited about today. So thank you all for making the journey to come here. I think we should just go ahead and get started with the first panel. Let me introduce Quentin and the rest of the panel, why don't you guys come up and Quentin, do you wanna introduce the panelists? I'll have you do that. But I wanna just actually, as you come up one more quick thing, I wanna acknowledge three people, Molly, Eba and Christine who did really the bulk of the work in getting everybody here. So let's take 10 seconds and give them a round of applause. All right, with that, I will turn it over to my colleague and compatriot and partner in crime, Quentin Palfrey. Quentin, thank you for organizing today. Thanks so much. Thank you Ashish.
