We are incredibly grateful to the State of North Carolina for investing in a new medical education building for the Brody School of Medicine at @EastCarolina. All of Brody's students are N.C. residents and as N.C. residents, they have a special message for their state.

M2 Angie Gibson drove to what may be the most remote clinic in the state for her preceptorship at Ocracoke Health Center. “I come from Iron Station, [and] my family didn’t always have health insurance. I know firsthand how rural areas suffer when it comes to health care.”

Well done, Alessio! The Brody Scholars program was created through gifts from the Brody family and the Brody Foundation. Since the program began in 1983, 163 medical students have received the award. Thank you, Brodys!

Students from Camp Schreiber made the trip from Wilmington at the invitation of Brody Scholar Hailey Lewis (M2) for a field day that included sim lab exercises, med ed, and a visit to the East Care helipad. Lots of M2s helped. Loved having you Schreibers!

For his preceptorship, Tim Patron worked under Dr. David Gilbert last week at AccessMedicine in Williamston, a majority-minority city of about 5,000 where 3 in 10 are on Medicaid or Medicare. Tim wants to be a Family Medicine physician.

Congrats M2s on wrapping up your preceptorship week! Here's Brody Scholar Rebecca Cloninger with OBGYN Dr. Natalie Broadway (Brody CO '19) at Catawba Valley Medical Center. "I saw more than 40 women ... all of whom had an amazing relationship with their OBGYN!"

Which works better to prevent cardiovascular and kidney events in type 2 patients, GLP-1 receptor agonists or SGLT2 inhibitors? That’s what Dr. Shiv Patil and Dr. Beatriz Ramirez want to know. They just got research $$$ from @BrighamWomens for the PCORI-funded PRECIDENTD study.

Our school, our university and @ecuhealth in conjunction with the @ecuhealthfoundation recently celebrated our world-class cardiovascular services in #ENC at an event at The Martinsborough. It featured a stirring retrospective that's worth a watch.

Researchers published this hopeful study of a couple of brain receptors. One is the cannabinoid receptor. The other may be “a signaling partner” that raises oxidative stress. When that one was blocked, the heart and brain were better protected! #ARRRGH1

Why is this family physician calling himself the "poster boy" for the Brody School of Medicine?

Over the weekend NC @SNMA chapters mingled in Raleigh with others at Boxcar Bar + Arcade. Our chapter is pretty active. Give 'em a follow on IG and FB, @BrodySNMA. Way to represent, future physicians!

Right now ECU Pediatrics’ resident Dr. Maria Alejandra Canas-Galvis is doing a poster presentation at @AAPexperience in Denver. Her research found _mostly_ misinformation in medical and parenting videos shared on TikTok by non-professionals. https://t.co/ybDv3GfWJ1
