General Dental Practice Residents and M.P.H. Candidates Complete Federal Service Internship
Three New York Medical College (NYMC) School of Medicine (SOM) General Dental Practice Residents, who are also pursuing their M.P.H. degrees in the School of Health Sciences and Practice, participated in the 2019 American Institute of Dental Public Health's (AIDPH) Federal Service Internship (FSI) in October in Rockville, Maryland, along with a small cohort of dental public health residents from other institutions. From left, Belinda Gaines, D.M.D. (PGY-2), Felicia Nicolas, D.D.S. (PGY-2), and Ana Kodra, D.M.D. (PGY-1), were able to participate in the program thanks to the NYMC SOM Department of Dental Medicine's Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) five-year, $2.4 million grant, which supports the residents' M.P.H. degree tuition and covered the cost of their travel to the FSI.
