Christopher Cox, MD
Palliative Care in the ICU
Bio: I am an ICU doctor and clinical researcher at Duke. My work can be summed up best with the reply I always give when my daughter asks what I did during the day: ‘I just try to make people feel better.’ I have conducted / am conducting numerous clinical trials using digital interventions that focus on addressing racial disparities in healthcare, improving ICU-based palliative care delivery, and delivering of self-guided therapies for psychological distress. I’ve also been lucky enough to mentor a number of researchers whose talents humble me daily.
