I always look forward to greeting and getting to know our new students, faculty, and staff during this time of year. Autumn brings fresh goals, fresh perspectives, and fresh motivation, yet we remain committed to productive, ongoing efforts like the Culture Transformation Initiative (CTI). The CTI enforces the School of Medicine's dedication to cultivating our culture as a national model for a respectful, inclusive, and professional work environment. I recently welcomed all our new medical students, the Class of 2023.
In addition to a majority representation of women among our entering classes, the Bressler Research Building's new lobby commemorates some of the most remarkable women in our medical and scientific history. I look forward to the conversations, reminiscences, and inspiration that this exhibit will elicit.
One of my favorite parts about welcoming new members of our community is learning the varying interests and areas of our profession that stir their skilled and investigative minds. For our new colleague and Professor of Pediatrics, Allan Doctor, MD, that includes blood function as it relates to critical illnesses. Dr. Doctor leads the new Center for Blood Oxygen Transport & Hemostasis and the effort to develop an artificial blood product for trauma settings, like battlefields or rural areas with limited access to donated blood for transfusions. This new research center and Dr. Doctor's leadership bring the promise of critical advances in the field of hematology.
Many rural communities in the United States experience an extreme lack of health care, including here in Maryland. The fact that so many of our neighbors live without access to the same health resources and conveniences that we are so privileged to have is unacceptable. This summer we received a new opportunity to address this need with the support from our partner, the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), who awarded our Department of Family and Community Medicine a three-year grant to establish a residency program in rural Eastern Shore communities.
I am eager to highlight many more activities, accomplishments, and milestones at this year's State of the School Address on October 30 in Leadership Hall at 3:30 pm. Our theme will be "Visionary Vanguards." The stories we are sharing this year will highlight our commitment to education, research, and clinical care, which has led to record-breaking funding and history-making innovations. I encourage everyone to attend and support your colleagues and peers who will share their roles in the School of Medicine's charge to transform our culture while shaping the future of medicine.
Please also mark your calendars for the Festival of Science on November 21 in Leadership Hall from 8:30 am-4 pm, where we will focus on some of our interconnected global health research initiatives. I invite you to join and support each other during this riveting day of research and discovery. Together, we will kick off what I know will be another exceptional academic year.
