Professor Michelle Mello (Stanford Law School and Stanford School of Medicine) has a long-standing connection to New Zealand; among her two decades of research on medical injury are studies of the ACC system here and its relevance for efforts to reform medical liability in the US.

Her lecture, on 10 March 2026 at the University of Auckland, will explore developments in New Zealand’s ACC cover for medical treatment injury alongside developments in medical and vaccine liability law in the US.
