Healthcare privacy law is one of the most consequential—and most misunderstood—areas of modern legal practice. Join Kirk Nahra, Co-Chair of the Artificial Intelligence, Cybersecurity, and Privacy Practices at WilmerHale, for a compelling deep dive into healthcare privacy fundamentals as part of the UC Berkeley Center for Law and Technology Expert Series. With more than 26 years of frontline experience, Kirk cuts through the complexity to reveal how HIPAA actually came to be, who it really covers, and why the regulatory landscape is growing more tangled—and more critical—by the year. This multipart series is designed to give you the baseline every privacy and healthcare professional needs.

Who is this program for? Attorneys and privacy professionals, healthcare industry professionals, business, HR, and technology leaders who are navigating HIPAA and/or collects, uses, or manages employee or consumer health information.
