Talk to explore 'Why Medical Students Cry'

Nancy Angoff, associate dean of student affairs and assistant professor of internal medicine at the School of Medicine, will lead the next Faculty Bioethics Workshop on the topic "Why Medical Students Cry."

The workshop will take place on Wednesday, April 11, at noon in the lower level conference room of the Institution for Social and Policy Studies, 77 Prospect St. Lunch will be served at the event, which is free and open to the public. For information and reservations, contact Carol Pollard at (203) 432-6188 or carol.pollard@yale.edu.

As an attending physician at Yale-New Haven Hospital and the Nathan Smith Clinic at Yale, Angoff specializes in the care of people with HIV/AIDS. She became a student at the Yale School of Medicine at the age of 40 in 1986. She began and directs an elective course that pairs first-year medical students with an HIV provider and a patient with HIV, who the student follows for three years, taking on increasingly more responsibility for the patient's care.
