Staff news New General Internal Medicine Administrator [cid:image004.jpg@01D9C6ED.A403EDD0]We are pleased to announce that Susan Calero will be our new administrator in the Division of General Internal Medicine, effective Aug. 23. Susan comes to us with 30 years of experience in leadership and a proven track record in management and fiscal stewardship. She managed the UW General Internal Medicine Center for 14 years, and served as director of the University of Washington Medical Center Ambulatory Care Division. Most recently she has been recruiting manager for UW Medicine Human Resources. She has a bachelor's degree in history from State University of New York at Buffalo and credits toward a master's in public health at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Please join us in welcoming Susan to the division and department and thank you to Dana Panteleeff for her outstanding work as interim administrator. Faculty news [cid:image006.jpg@01D9C6ED.A403EDD0]Dr. Jennifer Ray, clinical assistant professor (Gastroenterology) will join the 2023 cohort of American College of Gastroenterology Early Career Leadership Program. This program develops future leaders in clinical gastroenterology by providing leadership and policy training to early-career physicians. Education news Paving the Way for Better Healthcare for Latinx Patients [cid:image008.jpg@01D9C6ED.A403EDD0]A recent study conducted by the Latino Center for Health on the Latino physician workforce in Washington revealed that despite Hispanics making up nearly 15% of the state's population, only about 4% of physicians are of Hispanic descent. As a result, Hispanic patients may feel disconnected from their physicians. Dr. Lucia Ramirez, R1, wanted to help address this need. To start, she applied for an observership with Dr. Lorena Alarcon-Casas Wright, clinical associate professor (Metabolism, Endocrinology and Nutrition) and founder and director of the LatinX Diabetes Clinic. "I was able to obtain this observership because Dr. Alarcon-Casas Wright accepted my petition," said Ramirez. "I believe if more doctors or universities would give international medical graduates this opportunity, they would see the unique skills international medical graduates offer that can help their program and their patients." The experience at the UW Medicine Diabetes Institute and the LatinX Diabetes clinic is what sparked Ramirez's interest in pursuing a residency in internal medicine. Having more doctors like Ramirez pursue internal medicine and diabetes care is critical, Alarcon-Casas Wright says, so Latinx patients can receive better care that is culturally appropriate.

Research news Cancer moonshot scholars [cid:image010.jpg@01D9C6ED.A403EDD0]The Biden Cancer Moonshot announced the inaugural cohort of Cancer Moonshot Scholars, a program launched by President Biden last year to support early-career researchers and help build a cancer research workforce that better represents the diversity of America. As one of 11 inaugural scholars, Dr. Matthew Triplette, associate professor (Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine) will be evaluating the barriers and facilitators of lung cancer screening adherence in decentralized programs, in order to adapt and measure the impact of interventions on adherence.

Dr. Hans-Peter Kiem, professor (Hematology and Oncology) is pursuing such a cure in the form of in vivo gene therapy that confers HIV resistance to a specific subset of a patient's hematopoietic stem cells, or HSCs, the building blocks of our blood and immune systems. He was awarded $480,000 by amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research, to support the next stage of his work. "This grant gets us one step closer to in vivo gene therapy for HIV as well as sickle cell disease and other genetic diseases," said Kiem, who holds the Stephanus Family Endowed Chair for Cell and Gene Therapy. He is also deputy director of the Translational Science and Therapeutics Division. "I think this will have very wide implications for the field." Read the full story from Hutch News. Clinical news Program to bring antidepression therapies to dialysis units [cid:image014.jpg@01D9C6ED.A403EDD0]Telling a patient that their kidneys have failed and that they need to go on dialysis is tantamount to saying their life is no longer their own, Dr. Raj Mehrotra, professor and head (Nephrology) says. "Kidney failure involves a series of losses. Not simply a potential loss of years of life, but also lifestyle: Your diet must change. You may have to quit your job. You'll have less time to travel and do activities that you enjoy. You'll have a medication regimen of 19 pills a day, on average," he said. Now imagine how much harder these life changes would be, he added, for someone who is managing depression, too. That is the backdrop to a just-announced $2.1 million grant to develop a clinical-delivery program for two treatments found effective at improving mental health among people on dialysis. This program would make the antidepressant drug sertraline and cognitive behavioral therapy available to more than 8,300 people at Satellite Healthcare dialysis centers in California, Texas, Georgia and Tennessee. Funding comes from the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI), an independent nonprofit. Mehrotra is the grant's principal investigator. Read the full story from UW Medicine Newsroom.

The context and climate of academic medicine reinforce gender inequities and lead to increased burnout in women physicians, gender pay inequities, and decreased opportunities for career advancement. To inform efforts to improve gender equity in the Department of Medicine, the Gender Equity Council sought faculty and staff perspectives to understand the barriers to supporting employees with families and to explore what an ideal model of support for faculty, staff and trainees with families might look like. Systemic challenges identified within the department included cultural and structural issues as well as the perpetuation of societal inequities.

Discovering what's at the heart of these health disparities and poor outcomes is crucial, especially as the population ages and the number of cancer patients - of all stripes - continues to rise. But there's a dearth of data on LGBTQ+ patients with cancer. The main reason? A lack of self-reported sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) data. Dr. Matthew Triplette, associate professor (Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine) has launched a pilot study to help collect sexual orientation and gender identity data to better help LGBTQ+ patients dealing with cancer. Read the full story from Hutch News. Education news [cid:image006.png@01D9CC6B.2D096E20]Training refugee physicians Since 1975, Boise, Idaho has accepted more than 30,000 refugees from more than 50 countries. Annually, Boise accepts one of the largest amounts of refugees in the nation and one of the largest shares relative to its population. This community includes a number of physicians whose practices were interrupted due to the development of conflict in their countries. Drs. Scott Smith, professor emeritus (General Internal Medicine) and Paula Carvalho, professor (Pulmonary, Critical Care, and Sleep Medicine) recently conducted a multi-station skills session in the Boise VA Simulation Lab for a group of refugee physicians. These doctors - practicing physicians and surgeons in their own countries (Ukraine, Afghanistan, Africa, Middle East) - are now living in Boise as part of Idaho's refugee programs.
