In this episode, we speak with OneWorld Health’s (OWH) Medical Advisor Dr. Elizabeth Discolo, as well as NYU students Sarah Bender and Felicity Duran who completed their summer internship with OWH in Uganda. The students discuss their time as part of OWH’s medical outreach team and the research they conducted to create hypertension treatment protocols for a clinic at the Masindi-Kitara Medical Center. They also discussed how they plan to continue to work to create change in underserved communities locally and abroad. To learn more about internships with OWH, please contact Jason Arnold, Director of Global Health Programs & Special Projects, at [email protected] and visit OneWorld Health’s website: www.oneworldhealth.com.
