For the October issue, we revisit the Power List and celebrate previous winners, including Adam Mapani, Paul Singh, Elizabeth Yeu, Mariya Moosajee, and Nikki Hafezi. Anat Loewenstein wrote the issue’s opening letter, in which she brings up the 2021 all-female Power List’s role of “reminding us how much women can contribute to our healthcare system, to our patients, and to the scientific community.”
