In 2004, he completed his Master of Public Health degree at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and became a faculty member for the school. The following year, he also became faculty at Harvard Medical School. At the Harvard T.H.

In 2013, Ashish was elected to the National Academy of Medicine.

During his tenure, the school has expanded its programs, physical footprint, and faculty.
In March of 2022, President Joe Biden appointed Dr. Jha as the White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator, describing him as “one of the leading public health experts in America.” At the White House, Dr. Jha led the work that increased the development of and access to treatments and newly formulated vaccines, dramatically improved testing and surveillance, facilitated major investments in indoor air quality measures, and put in place an infrastructure to respond to current and future disease outbreaks more effectively.
Dr. Jha received bipartisan praise for his pragmatic approach to public health that, in the words of President Biden, “translates…complex scientific challenges into concrete actions” that help improve millions of lives.
As a long-time leader in pandemic preparedness and response, from directing groundbreaking research on Ebola to serving on the frontlines of the COVID-19 response, he has led national and international analysis of key issues and advised local and federal policymakers around the world.

How We Stop It From Sinking Our Economy? Because It Will.
Runaway healthcare spending now threatens to sink our economy, eating into wage growth while ballooning the costs of overall worker compensation. It’s not only bad for workers, but businesses as well. It strains our federal budget, completely swallows state budgets, and forces deep cuts in other essential services and priorities. What can we do?
Climate change is often seen as an environmental problem, which of course it is. But, it is also the most urgent, overlooked threat to health. The connection is real, immediate, and deadly. We will see more respiratory and heat-related illness and increased droughts will create famine-induced migratory patterns that enable exponential disease spread. The solutions demand new connections between scientists and policymakers.
Artificial Intelligence and its Application to Medicine and Public Health
Respiratory infections like COVID, the flu, RSV, and others, have a large impact on worker health and business productivity. However, COVID has taught us a lot about how we can keep people healthy at work.
Ultimately, this talk is focused on employers who understand typical respiratory seasons are disruptive – and a bad season can be even more so. But we now have the tools to manage it far more effectively.
What did we learn from COVID-19? Even more, what did the pandemic expose, and teach us, here and around the globe?
Throughout the presentation, Dr. Jha was profoundly knowledgeable, spoke about current information with comfort and command of the topic, was flexible to adapt to the questions, and most importantly, had a kind of humanity and approachability with his style that made the content attractive and digestible. He personalized some of his remarks and made the topic easier for folks to understand. In short, Dr. Jha did a great job and we are supremely grateful.
For what it’s worth, his role in promoting public health understanding may be among the most important roles for public health people. We need more people like Dr. Jha. – Salesforce
