Description
Funded by the National Cancer Institute and established at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine in collaboration with Gallaudet University, this 3 year-old project aims to prepare medical students to become clinical leaders dedicated to improving access to health care and cancer prevention and control information to the Deaf and Hard of Hearing Community. While in San Diego, students learn ASL and Deaf Culture, present cancer information to the Deaf Community and begin research projects. Students attend Gallaudet University for a 4-week ASL/Deaf culture immersion program and while at Gallaudet, they continue with their research projects and cancer lectures.
