Co-principal investigators Tracey Burke, Ph.D., professor in the School of Social Work, and Holly Martinson, Ph.D., associate professor in the WWAMI School of Medical Education, hope the program empowers more Alaskans to pursue an advanced biomedical, research-focused degree and contribute to the research community.
UAA students have launched the Health Professionals Student Organization to support each other and share resources as they prepare for health careers and graduate programs.

One piece of the puzzle: Helping students in health care programs go on to be successful professionals across our state.
