- We will provide space and schedule forums for us to have reconciliation conversations together. These conversations will provide us with opportunities to share, learn, and grow together.
- I am charging our academic leadership to create working groups composed of residents, fellows, and faculty to discuss, inform, and make recommendations to me on actions we should take within our academic community, and within MedStar Health, to make tangible changes to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion.
- We will move swiftly to create diversity and inclusion strategies for recruitment and selection of residents and clinical faculty, as stipulated by the ACGME in 2019. I will provide resources and structure for our program directors and clinical leaders to develop these recruitment and selection strategies that can be implemented as early as this fall.

As we continue to adapt to living with physical distancing, our community is re-creating our academic platform. This morning (at 6 am, thank you very much!) I had the pleasure of joining the faculty, staff, residents and students in the MedStar Department of Plastics and Reconstructive Surgery for their inaugural virtual Research Symposium.
Despite the early hour, this was a vibrant symposium. After opening remarks by Dr. Ken Fan, the scientific director for the department, we went into resident and research fellow presentations. I was so impressed with the quality and quantity of research studies, from surgical techniques to the use of tele-health. In many ways, this department's research exemplifies many of the concepts I described in my keynote lecture on becoming a world-class academic health system - one in which our research is well connected to the health and well-being of our community.
Congratulations to all the presenters and the entire department!
