Circulation On The Run

Dr Carolyn Lam:                We start today's podcast with a few words from our Editor-in-Chief, Dr Joe Hill. Dr Joe Hill:                           I speak with you today with a heavy heart as we recently lost an esteemed and beloved colleague, Professor Bongani Mayosi. Bongani was a pioneering leader, a renowned investigator, Dean of the Medical School at the University of Cape Town, and an important member of our Circulation editorial leadership team.                                                 Bongani had an abiding passion for the under-served, especially those in his native Africa. He died tragically and suddenly at the early age of 51, just 10 days after recording the podcast you're about to hear.                                                 We mourn the loss of this colleague and our hearts go out to his family. It is a very poignant moment, as we hear his voice once again. We grieve deeply, and are reminded of Bongani's towering achievements and contributions to the betterment of our world
