Readers are Leaders: Meet Dr. Electron Kebebew
Ethiopia Reads has great news! We are pleased to announce that we have appointed our first Goodwill Ambassador, Dr. Electron Kebebew, an eminent surgeon and scientist, book lover and longtime supporter of Ethiopia Reads.

Today, he is a Professor of Surgery at Stanford University and Chief of General Surgery at Stanford Health Care. We are delighted and honored that he has agreed to represent Ethiopia Reads, and our work for literacy and education in Ethiopia.

Here, Nebabie shares the story, which spans M.I.T., Ethiopia and the Silicon Valley, and includes her siblings too. She also talks about what she’s hearing from Siemens’ semiconductor customers, cloud-readiness in EDA, and the mindset change that gives her optimism about climate issues, a focus on which has finally come even to the world of chip design.
So your middle name…?
Nebabie: Actually it’s my first name on my birth certificate. I was born in Massachusetts. My father was a graduate student at M.I.T. and was just crazy about science, reflected in the names he gave my siblings.
