As a first-gen medical student what I’m about to share means so much to me: This week I published my first, first-author publication in NEJM about the need for increased representation of Black people and minority populations in #MedEd learning material. nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Medical Student- Malone Mukwende, creates a medical handbook for Black and Brown people. The Second year student identified racial gaps during his studies. He explains that many resources refer to symptoms on white skin. The handbook displays signs and symptoms on darker skin.
