Dr. Leone directs Penn's Comprehensive Smoking Treatment Program, a clinical program of the Penn Lung Center. The new program provides state-of-the-art and individualized treatment to smokers, including those with comorbidities.

Dr. Leone's scholarship focuses on investigating treatment strategies for tobacco use disorder and the effects of smoke on airway biology. Dr. Leone is a member of several professional and scientific societies, including the Society for Research on Nicotine and Tobacco, and has served as President of the Board of Directors of the American Lung Association of Pennsylvania.

Keynote: Renda S. Wiener, MD, MPH

Dr. Wiener is a pulmonary and critical care physician, health services researcher, and implementation scientist. Her research has focused on two core areas:
1) Identifying and de-implementing low-value care in pulmonary and critical care medicine,
2) Defining and implementing patient-centered strategies to optimize the ratio of benefits to harms in lung cancer screening and evaluation of potentially malignant pulmonary nodules.

 Dr. Wiener received grant funding from the NIH, VA HSR&D, VA QUERI, Department of Defense, PCORI, and several foundations to study these issues, and have co-chaired or participated in several clinical practice guidelines and policy statements to improve the quality, value, and patient-centeredness of care.
