What does it take to leave Syria during the Civil War and become the first Syrian Rhodes Scholar? Dr Alexey Youssef trained in Medicine in Syria — where he practiced during the Civil War, during which the hospital he worked in was bombed. He then became the first Syrian to gain the prestigious Rhodes Scholarship at Oxford University and then started his PhD in Clinical AI. He has now started his MBA at the Harvard Business School. We talk about some of his research which focuses on building Electronic Health Records in low and middle income countries such as Syria — which has garnered support from the WHO. We also talk about what it was about him and what approaches he used to achieve such amazing success when living and working during the Syrian Civil War. I hope you enjoy.
