Congratulations to Dr. Brianna Jackson on her publication in PLOS One, Finally my turn to write my story”: A convergent mixed methods study exploring the perceptions and experiences of emerging adults who aged out of foster care in Canada!
This work examines how former youth-in-care navigate the transition to independence after aging out of the foster system. Her research provides important insights into the challenges and resilience of this population, contributing to a deeper understanding of support needs for emerging adults in foster care.
Congratulations to Dr. Mignote Yilma on her publication in Journal of Clinical Medicine, Outcomes from Referral to Transplant for Patients with MASLD: A California Liver Network Study!
This study, which Dr. Yilma designed, assembled, and led during her time at NCSP, represents the first publication from the California Liver Network.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the recent NCSP and RWJF Alumni Association gathering! We were thrilled by the strong turnout and grateful for the opportunity to reconnect with so many members of our community. Your engagement and thoughtful participation made the evening especially meaningful.
Our event featured RWJF Clinical Scholar alum Neil Powe, MD, MPH, MBA, Chief of Medicine at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Constance B. Wofsy Distinguished Professor and Vice Chair of Medicine at UCSF. Dr. Powe shared reflections from his experience as a healthcare leader, as well as his insights and optimism about navigating uncertain times. The fireside chat exemplified the spirit of dialogue that defines the National Clinician Scholars Program.
Following the discussion, we enjoyed a wonderful reception for alumni and Scholars to continue conversations, strengthen connections, and celebrate the evening together.
Events like this strengthen our alumni network, foster connection across generations of Scholars, and create space for shared learning and reflection. We look forward to seeing many of you at our next annual alumni event!
We are proud to spotlight Maxwell Presser, MD, MPH, whose work in injury and violence research continues to receive national recognition. Dr. Presser has had two abstracts accepted for presentation at the Society for Advancement of Violence and Injury Research (SAVIR) Conference this April.
The accepted presentations, “Beyond the Bullet: Evaluating Firearm-Acquired Disability among Survivors of Violence” and “Identifying Firearm-Acquired Disability: An Iterative, Multidisciplinary Approach Using the Trauma Registry and Electronic Health Records,” highlight Dr. Presser’s efforts to better understand the long-term impacts of firearm injury. His work emphasizes the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration and the use of trauma registry data and electronic health records to improve identification and evaluation of firearm-acquired disability.
