Father, Husband, Leader, Visionary: Remembering John Moore Jr.

On the Pride edition of the ChilCast, we feature two very special guests in an exciting and sobering look at the ways in which LGBTQ+ people interact with (and are often failed by) the American healthcare system and the technology within it.
How can healthcare tech enable this marginalized population to receive better care and better outcomes? Where is the intersection of technology, access to care, and health equity? We dive into all this and more on this special edition episode.
Chilmark Research is proud to feature our two distinguished guests, both of whom bring robust backgrounds in LGBTQ+ healthcare and advocacy to the discussion:
Dr. Dustin Nowaskie is a queer, nonbinary psychiatrist who is making waves in the world of LGBTQ+ healthcare. With a deep personal identification and a strong civic commitment, they have dedicated their career to improving the lives of LGBTQ+ individuals.
Alex Sheldon is a professional researcher, strategist, and advocate with over 15 years of experience in the field of human rights with a concentration in LGBTQ+ rights. Prior to joining GLMA, Alex was the Head of Research & Social Impact at an LGBTQ+ start-up company, where they specialized in economic inclusion for LGBTQ+ people. Alex currently serves on the Board of Directors at the Equality Federation.
