Another medical facility has signed a clinical training agreement with IUP’s proposed college of osteopathic medicine.
The latest contract is with the Chan Soon-Shiong Medical Center at Windber. The center becomes the latest on the list of medical facilities in the region that will provide training to attendees during the third and fourth years of their education. Founding Dean of the college Dr. Miko Rose said that the center is a strong leader in rural healthcare and its collaboration with the Chan Soon-Shiong Institute of Molecular Medicine can offer an outstanding experience for the students. Hospital CEO Richard Sukenik said the proposed college is promising to be “a leader in creating an interprofessional educational network emphasizing expertise in medical research, community outreach, and evidence-based clinical care for our nation’s most under-resourced rural populations”
Ceremonies to make the agreement official were held yesterday at the Windber facility.
