Hunting an Underground Epidemic
A fungal respiratory infection, Valley fever, could be more widespread than anyone predicted. An interdisciplinary team of researchers is trying to map the danger zones across the state--and predict where the fungus can thrive.
Beyond Clinic Walls
Andrea Wallace, PhD, RN, is using her expertise in health services research to find ways to measure patients’ social needs and connect them to the resources they need most, so that recovery doesn’t stop once patients leave the clinic.
