Sandeep “Sunny” Kishore designs new strategies to address old and large social problems. As a physician-scientist he has worked to change how doctors, researchers, and policymakers approach health challenges and battle the chronic diseases sweeping our world. He encourages them to think more about the “causes of the causes” of maladies like cancer, heart disease, and diabetes—the social determinants that influence the behaviors that affect our health.
Sunny has led programs, action centers and global networks focused on social innovation and knowledge creation that have reached over 150 countries. He has worked both internationally, nationally and in California on scalable treatment algorithms for cardiometabolic conditions.
