- A study was conducted to investigate racial, ethnic, and geographic disparities in influenza vaccine uptake among adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) across two medical centers.
- The findings revealed that non-Hispanic White patients and older individuals were more likely to receive the influenza vaccine, while Black patients and those from underserved areas had lower vaccination rates.
- The research highlighted the need for further studies to explore ways to improve vaccination rates and address these disparities amongst IBD patients.
Leadership training is a necessary component of undergraduate medical education. Our group successfully implemented a student-led organization starting from 2016 (Student Leadership Development Initiative; SLDI) that aimed to provide medical students with exposure to physician-leader career paths in an informal, organic, interactive setting. The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated a shift to online programming, and given the high prevalence of ZOOM fatigue, we incorporated monthly, freely available, self-directed modules as an additional leadership training opportunity.

Objective: To assess whether an RPM program for COVID-19 is associated with lower or higher likelihood of hospitalization and whether patients who are admitted present earlier or later for hospital care.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This retrospective, observational, cohort study of RPM was performed at Froedtert & Medical College of Wisconsin Health Network, an academic health system in southeastern Wisconsin.
