So far as I am aware, not a single NIH IDeA program has received a notice of award. We have now joined the growing list of statewide programs, all quite rural, to announce the likely cancellation of our summer student programs. What a waste. And we may have to cancel much more if we don’t hear soon.

Had a great time presenting my work with the Sun Bus at the rural access to dermatology meeting! Thank you so much to the folks at the Sun Bus and Dr. Krystal Massey for supporting this! #derm #healthaccess
