Special Lecture - Global ID Elective in Nepal

-
Our second-year fellow, Dr. Brianna Hatch-Vallier, traveled to Nepal with PD, Dr. Holly Murphy, in November 2023 on the inaugural global ID elective the fellowship is now offering. This elective offered a chance for Brianna to spend time at the Patan Academy of Health Sciences (PAHS). PAHS hosts the first ID fellowship in Nepal and one of the first in the region. PAHS is a national TB and referral center with a medical school, residences, and a long history of hosting and teaching international doctors-in-training.  Brianna gave a lecture on 12/21/23 to Trinity Health's faculty recapping interesting cases from Nepal and reporting on her overall experience. We are very grateful for this connection that Dr. Murphy has fostered, as it allows future fellows this unique learning experience of global ID.
