  For 50 years, Brown has committed itself to training doctors who can change the world. ▶️1. In the wake of the #September11 terrorist attacks, the Rhode Island Disaster Management Assistance Team, which included several faculty and students, was deployed to Ground Zero. “We were preparing to leave for New York even before we heard from national headquarters,” alum Dr. Selim Suner said. 2. After a devastating #earthquake hit Haiti on January 12, 2010, faculty and medical students provided trauma care and organizational support on the island. Later, Dean Edward Wing led a group of medical educators to #Haiti to advance plans for an exchange program with St. Damien’s Hospital. The Medical Education and Leadership Development Project aims to address the need to provide pediatric clinical rotations to Haitian medical students.3. In response to an #Ebola virus outbreak in 2014, medical faculty and alums traveled to #Liberia, #SierraLeone, and #Guinea to treat patients. Brown faculty, staff, and students also collected and shipped PPE to health workers on the ground. 4. In 2019, The Medical School became the first in the country whose graduates were all trained to prescribe medications to treat #opioid use disorder in any US state. “We’re the first school to do this,” said Dr. Sarita Warrier, assistant dean of medical education. “We feel like we’re really pushing the #OpioidUseDisorder curriculum forward — not just here at Brown, but it’s moving the national view of such curricula as well.”5. In March 2020, all pre-clinical Medical School classes became remote, and clinical rotations were suspended due to the COVID-19 #pandemic. Quickly, medical students jumped into action, volunteering to staff #COVID hotlines, conducting contact tracing, delivering groceries for quarantining citizens, and providing child care to health care workers. As the crisis overwhelmed hospitals, 48 students who met all requirements graduated early and began treating patients. ... See MoreSee Less

  Talking out issues, it's not just for the Thanksgiving table anymore. At the Providence VA Medical Center, colleagues are offered a chance to discuss what they're thinking and experiencing during weekly “Courageous Conversations."Alternating team members lead the conversations, incorporating relevant media, discussion questions, and polls. Sometimes an essential part of the conversation is simply silence. “I think we’re modeling what it’s like to have a conversation even when we don’t agree,” says Mary Barros, LICSW, a primary care social worker.How these leaders are working on expanding the group's reach within the VA community and beyond: ...
