We continue in our four-part micro-series on endocrine in the time of COVID. Aaron talks more with Joshua Joseph, MD, assistant professor of medicine in the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. Dr. Joseph talks about disparities in research funding and the need for mentoring for young researchers, changes in policymaking that helps poor and BIPOC communities, and more engagement by endocrinologists both in the pandemic and in the treatment of all communities.
