Featuring: Dr. Fernando Carnavali, Associate Professor of Medicine and Internal Medicine Physician;
Dr. Lea Marin, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry;
Dr. Shawn Rhoads, Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and Neuroscience
Together, they discuss how loneliness affects the brain, the body, and society—and what clinicians and communities can do to help.
