Julio Nunes, MD

I was born in Mexico City, raised in Brazil, and completed my medicaleducation at Rio de Janeiro in 2020. There, I experienced first-hand the reality of public care in a developing country, having worked with severely underserved populations and victims of narcotrafficking violence. I am currently a postdoctoral scholar at the Stanford Center for Clinical Research where I focus my work on matters of Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion in clinical trials. Proudly Latin-American, I believe that communication and cultural learning are some of the keys to reduce health disparities and increase the quality of medical assistance: for everyone. In my free-time you will find me hunting for new places to eat, running, stand-up paddling, hiking, or looking for the closest live music performance.
