Rob Duncan wins SEMPA Award

Of the award, Duncan said, “It is quite an honor to be recognized by SEMPA with this award. I look forward to starting my career as a clinician soon and hope to begin working in Emergency Medicine this fall. With this award, I will continue my Emergency Medicine training by attending a Procedures Course to learn how to care for injured or critically ill patients. I feel very fortunate to have had so many great opportunities to learn how to be a provider while a student at UPAP. This award reflects the excellent quality of education offered at UPAP. Many thanks to everyone at UPAP who has helped mold my classmates and me into the clinicians we are today!”The article’s high citation rate is evidence of the value of the research and its scientific and social importance to leaders and researchers grappling with the uneven distribution of COVID-19 mortality.  As the article writers note in the abstract: “As COVID‐19 death rates continue to rise, existing structural inequalities continue to shape racial disparities in this pandemic. Policies mandating the disaggregation of state‐level data by race/ethnicity are vital to ensure equitable and evidence‐based response and recovery efforts.”The article’s high citation rate is evidence of the value of the research and its scientific and social importance to leaders and researchers grappling with the uneven distribution of COVID-19 mortality.  As the article writers note in the abstract: “As COVID‐19 death rates continue to rise, existing structural inequalities continue to shape racial disparities in this pandemic.
