In this second episode of the Immigrant Health Perspectives Series, Jude interviews Darya Naumova and Kenzy Abdelhamid who are co-leading a McGill initiative that trains medical students to be health translators. Their group, MedComm, recently received $30,000 in funding to continue these efforts and potentially expand their mission by collaborating with other faculties.
