About Us
Melanin in Medicine* was launched in August 2018. Our goal is to celebrate diversity and inclusion in health care, science, and public health. We aim to highlight the work of caring individuals from underrepresented minority backgrounds and to inspire the next generation of diverse educators, healers, public health practitioners, researchers, scientists, and agents of change. The views expressed on this site belong solely to their respective authors. - Ryan Huerto, MD, MPH, MA, Melanin in Medicine* Founder
