Student Supervision1. Health Bridges Project (Proyecto Puentes de Salud).

This is a community service / research project initiated in 2006 to study the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in a rural Mexican population. Selected first-year medical students spent 6-8 in the town of Juventino Rosas, in the state of Guanajuato, Mexico. A total of 13 students participated in this project. During their time in Mexico, the students carried out a number of health fairs in small rural communities and collected information on cardiovascular risk factors, health behaviors, socioeconomic factors, and assessed for depression. Patients with a new diagnosis of a chronic condition (i.e.: diabetes, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia) were referred to a local health provider for follow up. Research activities included data collection, data analysis, presentations

at state, national, and international meetings, and manuscript preparation. The research component of the study was approved by the IRB at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. My role in the project was to serve as faculty advisor and research mentor for the students that participated in the years 2006, 2007, and 2008.a) Emily Siu Clausen (Medical Student)
