“Historically Black Medical Schools: Addressing the Minority Health Professional Pipeline,” Journal of the National Medical Association, Joan Reede, et. al., 2009
Dr. Joan Reede (b. 1953) was one of several co-authors of this article about the role of historically black medical schools in the effort to eliminate health inequities. The article outlined some of the economic realities constraining the development of historically black medical schools, and then examined several initiatives undertaken by these schools to sustain their students and faculty. Dr. Reede and her coauthors make a strong case for increasing support for historically black medical schools as part of an effort to ensure that the nation has a supply of medical professionals prepared to provide care to communities in need.
