Keynote Address: The Resilience RX

Aditi Nerurkar, MD, MPH, a vibrant and engaging Harvard-trained physician, will be the keynote speaker of this year’s NPA Annual Conference. The keynote address will be presented during the Opening General Session on Monday, Oct. 6.

Dr. Nerurkar will speak on “The Resilience RX: Navigating Organizational Culture and Leadership Through Changing Times.” She will provide insights into optimizing mental health, well-being and productivity, offering important takeaways about reducing stress and how to gain resilience in your day-to-day work. Attendees will leave feeling energized and empowered to take control of their lives with practical recommendations backed by science that can be applied both immediately and in the long term.

On faculty in the Division of Global Health and Social Medicine at Harvard Medical School, Dr. Nerurkar is co-director of the Harvard Clinical Clerkship in Community Engagement. Her research has been published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).

She is the author of the bestselling book, “The Five Resets: Rewire Your Brain and Body for Less Stress and More Resilience.” Available in 35 countries and 15 languages, this accessible health-meets-self-help guide has been featured in the New York Times and the Times of London and on NPR. The book was named a must-read by Adam Grant and Malcolm Gladwell in the Next Big Idea Club and endorsed by Katie Couric, Arianna Huffington, author and advocate Eve Rodsky, and Harrison Ford.

Dr. Nerurkar has appeared on the Today Show and Good Morning America and in Oprah Magazine. She is an on-air medical commentator for various media outlets, including MSNBC and NBC News, and her TED Talk was highlighted on the TED homepage.
