Stone is from Montclair, New Jersey.[1] Stone has said that her early life inspired her career in medicine.[2] As a child she lost her grandmother to metastatic cancer, and as an undergraduate student she lost a cousin to pneumonia caused by HIV/AIDS. Stone was already a successful science student at high school, and decided that she would eventually pursue a degree in medicine.[2] As an undergraduate Stone studied chemical engineering, but whilst she enjoyed the science; she missed the interaction with members of society. Motivated by her grandmother, Stone became focused on women's health.[2] She completed her medical education at the Yale University School of Medicine.[2][1] She worked as a DJ throughout her studies and lived in the Harkness dorm.[2][3] Whilst she was studying medicine, she saw members of her family, classmates and friends get infected with HIV.[2] She has called AIDS the "defining disease of [her] generation".[2] After graduating in 1984, Stone initially began residency in obstetrics and gynecology, but after internship, switched to internal medicine and completed medicine residency at Case Western Reserve University.[2] As a medical resident, Stone joined the American College of Physicians, and she was board certified in 1988.[2][4] She earned a Master of Public Health at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. She later completed a fellowship in infectious diseases at the Boston City Hospital.[2] Her first job was at Boston City Hospital, where she directed ambulatory care services.[1]
Research and careeredit
After completing her training, Stone was appointed to the faculty at Harvard University.[2] At the beginning of Stone's career medicine there were limited treatment pathways for patients with HIV/AIDS.[2] She treated her first HIV/AIDS patient in 1983.[5] In 1996, things dramatically changed, when highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) made it possible to manage AIDS like other chronic illnesses. Her research focused on why HIV/AIDS was so prevalent amongst Black communities, and how to optimize the care of patients from underserved communities.[6][7] Whilst working at Harvard, Stone was an active primary care physician and a senior scientist at the Stoeckle Center for Primary Care Innovation at the Massachusetts General Hospital.[8] She was appointed a full Professor of Medicine at Harvard in 2011, and was the first African-American to hold such a position.[1][8]
In 2014, Stone was made Chair of the Department of Medicine at Mount Auburn Hospital, and was named the Charles S. Davidson Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School.[8] She moved to the Brigham and Women's Hospital in 2019, where she was made the Vice Chair for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, while continuing her role at Harvard Medical School.[4] Here she also serves on the faculty of the women's leadership program.[9]
Stone was appointed a Fellow of the American College of Physicians in 1996.[2] From 2001 to 2014 Stone directed the primary care residency program at Massachusetts General Hospital, and used the opportunity to transform the curriculum.[11] As part of this effort Stone created training programs in cross-cultural care, health policy and women's health.[11] She was elected to the American College of Physicians Board of Regents in 2008, and held this position for over 6 years.[2][12] From 2012 to 2014 she served as Chair of the Education and Publications committee.[2] She serves on the advisory board of the Fenway Institute National LGBT Health Education Alliance.[11]
