Dr. Brian P. Hinote serves as Professor & Vice Provost for Faculty & Strategic Initiatives at Middle Tennessee State University. In addition to clinical and research experience in areas as diverse as pediatrics, neurology, and cell biology, Dr. Hinote’s interdisciplinary work appears in multiple books and peer-reviewed journals in the social sciences, nursing, and medicine. His most recent work focuses on the various ways that social and behavioral science perspectives intersect and inform health care delivery and policy, clinical practice, and the work of various health professions. As a researcher and experienced educator, Dr. Hinote possesses valuable expertise working with students in various health fields as well as with health professionals already in the workforce.Dr. Jason Adam Wasserman is Dean's Distinguished Professor, Department of Foundational Medical Studies at Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine, where he teaches bioethics and medical sociology.
