For some reason, this statement made me smile.
Dr. Bhattacharya will work ...... to make important discoveries that will improve Health, and save lives.
Sounds like something from a school essay

Laura Loomis to complain about Bethesda smelling like curry in ..1…2..3..

But seriously, not his worst choice. Someone with both medicine and economics background could (could!) bring refreshing change to the prioritization of the role.
He probably knows enough not to buy into the ‘NIH doesn’t need to fund research because private sector is better at that’ absurdity.

Better than his Surgeon General…What exactly is the hierarchy in these public health roles?
-
Surgeon General is a bully pulpit.
NIH is a huge grant-making organization that is the world’s premiere funder of medical research.

Yes. We're applying to the NIH now to get a system I implemented into their genetics initiative. If that happens I will have piece of cake megabuck consulting gig as long as I want it.

Trump’s announced cabinet picks have something for everyone. For hawks, there’s Marco Rubio. For doves and Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad, there’s Tulsi Gabbard. For those who see the Covid vaccines as “a gift from God,” there’s the surgeon general nominee, Dr. Janette Nesheiwat. For those who hate vaccines and erroneously believe they cause autism, there’s Robert F. Kennedy Jr. For those who love dogs, there’s attorney general nominee Pam Bondi, who adopted a dog abandoned during Hurricane Katrina. For those who hate dogs, there’s Kristi Noem.
