State medical schools use a variety of funding sources for research, but officials are not getting as much money as they’d like in the state budget. Universities say this limits their ability to recruit and retain researchers. We’ll talk to university reps who are trying to get high stakes research funded:
- John Sharp, chancellor of Texas A&M University System
- Jo Wiederhorn, president of the Associated Medical Schools of New York
- Dr. Stephen Dewhurst, vice dean for Research at the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry
Then we focus on Affinity Place, which offers peer based crisis mental health services. We’ll talk mental health and more with our guests:
- Cheri Reed Watt, associate director of Paul Wolk Commons and program manager for Affinity Place
- Greg Soehner, President & CEO, East House
