While our school ranks #2 nationally for graduating Native American physicians, few of these graduates are from MN and often return to their home states to practice. That’s why Duluth faculty members Ben Clarke, Pedro Fernandez-Funez, Lynne Bemis and Jean Regal worked to create the Gateways to Medicine and Research Master of Science degree program. WIth a $750,000 award from the Genentech Innovation Fund, the progam will work to grow our own providers and researchers.
