Farhan Imran, MD, is a medical oncologist with more than two decades of clinical experience. Originally from Pakistan, he trained at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., and currently lives in Rochester, NY. Outside of medicine, he is deeply passionate about the outdoors, running marathons and telling stories. His blog, “Did I Ask?”, has garnered a loyal readership, and his essays have been featured on KevinMD.com and in various Pakistani publications. At home, he navigates the challenges of parenthood alongside two cats – one of whom he cheerfully admits he doesn’t particularly like.

Zoom is available for those who cannot attend in person.
