UNPACKED: Backstories from the University of Nevada, Reno

Trudy Larson, M.D.: Leader, Advocate, Protector of the Public’s Health

For a woman entering the male-dominated field of medicine in the 1960s and 70s, it’s been a winding journey of perseverance and possibilities for Trudy Larson, M.D. No list of Nevada medicine leaders and pioneers would be complete without Dr. Larson. A longtime role model, advocate for women, immunizations and public health policy, she serves as dean of the University’s School of Community Health Sciences and was named by Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak earlier this year to his COVID-19 Medical Advisory Team.
