Nice post!
Stay tuned for the 3 Minute Thesis Competition coming to Research Week this year- students will be judged on making their science accessible to everyone…should be fun.

..and to Amanda- for a guide look at ‘Don’t Be Such a Scientist’ by Randy Olson.

Couldn’t agree more. I often find myself stuck in one of two extremes when trying to explain and summarize my research- either it sounds like I’m talking to a class of preschoolers, or my explanation gets so technical I sound like I’m speaking a different language! Someone should compose a guide on how to do this correctly!

This event brings so much hope to inequities in care. You have a sincere voice and clearly, the passion for making an incredible impact. Preventative health disparities absolutely brought me to my MPH path, so this resonates.

As a student who is planning to apply to OHSU School of Medicine, I appreciate the time you took from your studies to write this particular entry. I am very happy to hear that OHSU has early clinical exposure and meaningful labs. I can appreciate these factors as important to my success in a medical program. Thank you for sharing your experiences.

You’re right, David. Writing about your experiences does have its own importance, and you are a very effective communicator. Thank you!

Great job Danielle. I agree that we need broad community based health care. Targeting single aspects won’t solve the situations our most needy find themselves in.

Thank you Shabnam for sharing the beautiful tradition of Norouz. I first heard of the Persian New Year only this past weekend, while in conversation with an acquaintance of mine.
