Harvard Medical School's new climate change curriculum is showing early success, according to a report by Gaurab Basu out today in PLOS Climate that outlines the Harvard Medical School curriculum aimed at preparing healthcare professionals for the challenges posed by climate change. Evaluations show the curriculum is preparing future doctors to incorporate climate considerations into their clinical practice. With a collaborative effort from students, faculty, and administrators, HMS has designed a comprehensive 4-year roadmap, serving as a model that other medical schools can follow.

🚨 Aaaaaaand we’re done! 🚨 For 4 years now I’ve been working away at a PhD in public health at the George Institute and the UNSW’s faculty of Medicine. ⚕️ Specifically I’ve been researching how to cut through the bureaucracy governing clinical trials. 🧬🧪 It’s taken a lot of weekends, and long nights and early mornings but it’s now submitted. Still a bit to go but the end is in sight. 🎓 #thesis #university #phd #medicine #publichealth #clinicaltrials

Our March Mentor Monday session included a special seminar on “Defining equity-mindedness through an intersectional and anti-deficit lens” by Naomi Nishi, PhD. Dr. Nishi notes that higher education often focuses on questions that examine why marginalized students are failing. However, many of these students excel in college and postsecondary education despite the barriers. In taking an anti-deficit approach, we can better understand what factors help marginalized students thrive. For example, instead of asking “Why do so few students of color pursue STEM majors?”, we can ask “What stimulates and sustains students’ interest in attaining degrees in STEM fields?”.
