Rethinking Medical Education | Lash Nolen
Episode Description
A new study published in JAMA found that more Black doctors means better outcomes for Black patients. Yet the percentage of med students from underrepresented groups is increasing at a paltry rate… and has actually decreased for Black men since 1978.
In this episode, LaShyra "Lash" Nolen talks about the future of medical education and care. Lash is a medical student, Fulbright scholar, science communicator, and the Founder of non-profit We Got Us. She currently serves as the first Black woman to become class president of the Harvard Medical School.
