The Diversity Visiting Student Program is a funded program designed to give students from diverse backgrounds the opportunity to experience the outstanding training that is available in the Department of Diagnostic Radiology at the University of Washington and to experience life in Seattle, a thriving, dynamic, beautiful city with mild, dry, sunny summers. Our clinical sites in Seattle serve a diverse group of patients in a five-state region (Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana, Idaho) that encompasses 27% of the landmass of the United States. We care for a substantial population of urban and rural under-served patients from a variety of socioeconomic and racial/ethnic backgrounds. In the Diagnostic Radiology Clerkship, students will spend four weeks rotating through four services (including Body Imaging, Chest Imaging, Emergency Radiology, Gastrointestinal/Genitourinary Fluoroscopy, Musculoskeletal Imaging, Neuroradiology, Nuclear Medicine, Pediatric Radiology) at three of the five major teaching institutions that the encompass the department's activities: UW Medical Center, Harborview Medical Center, and Seattle Children's Hospital. This will give the visiting student multiple options for experiencing how we care for a wide variety of patients in the nationally recognized tertiary care centers that we service. If space is available, students may opt instead for a single four-week rotation in Interventional Radiology at UW Medical Center and/or Harborview Medical Center. Overall, students will participate in the daily clinical services on site, and will also have the opportunity to attend resident teaching sessions and conferences and, for the Diagnostic Radiology Clerkship, didactics specifically geared for medical students.

A collaboration among faculty, residents, students, and volunteers, UCSF's Community Dental Clinic has been working to improve the health of San Francisco's homeless population for the past decade. The philosophy of the Community Dental Clinic is to motivate patients to seek healthcare and to prevent dental disease through education and preventive dentistry. CDC is guided by three mutually supportive sets of aspirations: (1) For the clients- to provide oral health education and treatment. To achieve a positive impact on the lives of our patients; (2) For the students- to create a setting in which students can learn, teach, and practice clinical skills while cultivating sensitivity and comfort in interactions with the underserved population; and (3) For the Community- To use the Dental Clinic as a forum for education and health care service. To promote advocacy for the needs of the homeless population. Ultimately, we hope this experience will broaden our vision and make us more able and compassionate health care providers for any population we choose to serve.
