Scientific Focus
Current Research Interests
A dire lack of basic health care currently exists in large parts of many developing countries. Through the collaboration of Stanford University students and faculty with the indigenous people of these regions, we hope to establish systems of health care stations for these rural regions. Our project endeavors to build an enduring and committed relationship with these communities via small, reproducible health care delivery programs. Ultimately, our goal is to create an independent healthcare system - fully staffed, supported, and sustained by the local villages, with no need for outside influence or direction. Not only do these projects provide crucial medical service and education for the people native to these regions, but it has also provided an invaluable learning experience for pre-clinical and clinical medical students, housestaff, and faculty volunteers.
