In remembrance of our colleague and friend, Charles L. Bosk, PhD, Professor of Sociology at Penn's School of Arts and Sciences, and Professor of Anesthesiology and Critical Care at the Perelman School of Medicine, who passed away suddenly on August 30, 2020. Chuck worked at Penn for over 40 years and was a highly valued and longstanding member of the Penn Community. He was an award-winning teacher and a cherished mentor. His work focused broadly on the culture of medicine and he published numerous books and articles on how health care professionals make sense of experiences in which time-pressured decisions are required in situations filled with un-resolvable uncertainty.
