Building Partnerships to Identify and Address Wildfire Smoke and Extreme Heat Health Effects in Priority Populations
Background: The health impacts of extreme heat and wildfire smoke events are unevenly distributed; climate-sensitive populations are more exposed, more sensitive, and less likely to have the resources to respond. In this article, we describe the process of building a community-academic-local government partnership and conducting a climate survey with climate-sensitive populations to inform city-wide climate adaptation planning efforts in San Fran…

Clerkship grading is a core feature of evaluation for medical students’ skills as physicians and is considered by most residency program directors to be an indicator of future performance and success. With the transition of the U.S. Medical Licensing Examination Step 1 score to pass/fail, there will likely be even greater reliance on clerkship grades, which raises several important issues that need to be urgently addressed. This article details t…
