We discuss a number of topics in Medical Education, Biomedical Science, and Healthcare, including the different stages of the Brazilian response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The discussions also explore: Brazil's and Brazilians strengths and struggles in the advancement of biomedicine; universal barriers to furthering advances; and problems specific to Brazil.
