Through the generosity of the Johns Hopkins Center for Innovative Medicine (CIM) donors, the DOM received $3M to launch the Center for Innovative Medicine Next Generation Scholar Awards. This program is designed to support the success of outstanding early-career faculty who are innovators in the areas of research, education, and clinical care. Scholars are unanimously selected by the CIM Next Generation Scholar Review Committee.
Congratulations to the second round of recipients:
Dr. Anum Minhas, assistant professor in the Division of Cardiology, helped establish the first Johns Hopkins Cardio-Obstetrics program to provide exceptional quality care to the highest risk patients, while ensuring patients are active participants in decision-making. With this award, she will study "Restoring Trust Through Precision and Compassion in Maternal Cardiovascular Health."
Dr. Matthew Robinson, assistant professor in the Division of Infectious Diseases, is interested in leveraging diagnostic innovation and precision medicine to reduce diagnostic and prognostic uncertainty for infectious diseases. With this award, he will leverage large language models for antibiotic stewardship and guideline-directed therapy at scale.
Dr. Ethel Weld, assistant professor in the Division of Clinical Pharmacology, aims to innovate and build knowledge around long-acting injectable antiretroviral therapy implementation in non-clinic-based settings, thus extending the reach of this potentially game-changing technology to engage those not already in care and those without viral suppression.
