On October 2nd, the 2021 Henrietta Lacks Health Equity Case Competition at the University of Michigan took place virtually. After putting in hours of preparation, teams provided innovative solutions to address health disparities in a variety of settings. Our team, consisting of miLEAD members Wayne Hawkins, Tyler McCullough, Shree Padma Metur, Zachary Reese, and Sydney Smith, placed third overall in the competition, beating 50 other teams. Our team remained competitive with teams from UC Berkeley, Yale, and other top institutions across three continents.
Great work and congratulations to miLEAD members who participated!
