  • You were instrumental in helping to end the infamous Tuskegee study. For those who may not be aware, can you briefly sum up your role? Also, why is the Tuskegee story still relevant today?
  • Why is it important that the public health work force reflect the diversity of U.S. communities? What more can be done to bring a diversity of professionals into the field?
