Dr. Anthony Fauci is perhaps the most recognized and influential figure in public health and policy in modern time. With a career bookended by the HIV/AIDs and COVID-19 pandemics, Dr. Fauci’s impact spanned 7 presidents, covered 50 years of public service, and touched billions of lives. Dr. Fauci has served the country with a relentless pursuit of discovery and innovation. Throughout his career, Dr. Fauci faced his research and his critics with an unwavering devotion to the science, and a deep concern and empathy for those suffering from disease, and a human-centered pragmatism that ultimately led to extraordinary results.

Dr. Anthony Fauci is a distinguished immunologist and infectious disease expert, best known for his role as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) from 1984 to 2022. Born on December 24, 1940, in Brooklyn, New York, Fauci grew up working in his family's pharmacy. He earned his medical degree from Cornell University, graduating first in his class. Fauci joined the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in 1968 and quickly rose through the ranks to become a key figure in U.S. public health. Throughout his career, Fauci played pivotal roles in managing several major health crises, including HIV/AIDS, Ebola, SARS, and the COVID-19 pandemic. His efforts in HIV/AIDS research were particularly groundbreaking, contributing to the development of therapies that have transformed the disease from a fatal diagnosis to a manageable condition. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Fauci became a household name, providing calm and evidence-based guidance amid a turbulent political landscape. After retiring from NIAID, Fauci joined Georgetown University as a Distinguished University Professor, where he continues to contribute to public health and policy discussions. His memoir, "On Call: A Doctor’s Journey in Public Service," chronicles his extensive career and the challenges he faced while advising seven U.S. presidents. Despite facing significant political pressure and public scrutiny, Fauci remains a respected figure in the medical community, known for his commitment to science and public health.
