Adam Booth
The Power List 2021 – In the Spotlight
As Assistant Professor of Pathology at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Adam actively raises awareness of pathology among medical students. He believes medicine faces a number of injustices, including patients “not [receiving] chemotherapy, imaging, or surgery because of insurance problems. At the same time, so many of our colleagues, aspiring colleagues, and patients continue to face racism, sexism, and intolerance perpetuated in medicine for decades.” Adam enjoys competing in triathlons and marathons. “I particularly like exercising in the extremes of cold and heat. Pushing myself physically during a hard workout is a way to disconnect and decompress.”
