David L. Katz (born February 20, 1963)[citation needed] is an American physician. He was the founding director of the Yale-Griffin Prevention Research Center that was founded at Griffin Hospital in Derby, Connecticut in 1998.[1]
Career
Previously, Katz was a clinical instructor in medicine at the Yale School of Medicine.[2] Katz formerly served as associate director for nutrition science at the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at Yale, following his appointment in 2005.[citation needed] Although Yale-Griffin Prevention Research Center is part of the Yale School of Public Health,[3] Katz has not had an academic appointment with Yale since 2016 and is no longer academically affiliated with the university.[4] Katz has authored over 100 scientific papers[citation needed] and written newspaper and magazine articles, including a recurring column in O: The Oprah Magazine starting in March 2002 and later discontinued. In 2000, Katz founded the Integrative Medicine Center at Griffin,[citation needed] which ceased operating in November 2014.[5] Katz is a contributor and advisory board member for Naked Food Magazine.[6]
In 2015, Katz wrote two positive reviews in his Huffington Post blog for a science fiction book that he had published under a pseudonym, without disclosing that he was the author of the book; Huffington Post retracted the posts.[7] In March 2020, Katz was invited by John Ioannidis to join in a proposed meeting intended to convince President Donald Trump not to employ lockdown measures during the COVID-19 pandemic; however, the meeting ultimately did not take place.[8] Katz is a co-signatory of the Great Barrington Declaration.[9]
His book How to Eat: All Your Food and Diet Questions Answered, coauthored with food journalist Mark Bittman, was published in 2020.[citation needed]
Education
Katz received a BA degree from Dartmouth College, an MD degree from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and an MPH degree from Yale School of Public Health. He is board certified in preventive medicine.[10]
