We are devastated by the loss of our friend Paul Farmer. He committed his life to others - tirelessly fighting for health equity for all.
Dr. Paul Farmer, Harvard Medical School professor, anthropologist & founder of Partners in Health, has died at age 62.
He started hospitals in Rwanda and Haiti and also helped bring life-saving HIV drugs to the people of Haiti in the early 2000s.
