Zara shares how she first became interested in the field of surgical palliative care, the importance of maintaining curiosity when talking to both patients and fellow surgeons, and the need to make certain that future research in palliative care helps to drive policy change. Zara manages to be incredibly smart, remarkably insightful and refreshingly approachable all at the same time, which makes for a great interview!
