Dr. Jerome Groopman Biography

Dr. Jerome Groopman holds the Dina and Raphael Recanati Chair of Medicine at the Harvard Medical School and is Chief of Experimental Medicine at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.

Also a staff writer for The New Yorker since 1998, Groopman writes regularly about a wide variety of medical conditions, biology and medicine for lay audiences. He has authored numerous editorials on policy issues in The New Republic and The Washington Post. His first popular book, The Measure of Our Days, examines the spiritual lives of patients with serious illness, and became the basis for the ABC Television series Gideon's Crossing.

His next book, Second Opinions, addresses the challenges that patients and their families face in evaluating and acting on medical advice. His third book, The Anatomy of Hope: How People Prevail in the Face of Illness, explores how we learn how to distinguish true hope from false hope, why some people feel they are undeserving of it, whether we should ever abandon our search, and what is an authentic biology of hope. A New York Times bestseller, it's been called "provocative and important" and "compassionate, touching and inspiring."

His book, How Doctors Think, explores how physicians arrive at the correct diagnosis and treatment, and why they may not. Called "elegant and tough-minded" by Michael Crichton, the book recounts stories about how doctors and patients interact with one other. His latest book, co-authored with Pamela Hartzband, is Your Medical Mind, a primer for making medical decisions.

Dr. Groopman serves on many scientific editorial boards and has published more than 150 scientific articles. In 2000, he was elected to the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences and in 2007 was elected as a Fellow of the American College of Physicians and a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. In 2008, he was elected to the American Academy of Arts & Sciences.
