WWAMI, a University of Washington medical school program that serves five western states, including Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ, recently received a $25 million endowment for scholarships to increase the number of physicians in rural and Indigenous communities.
A team of College of Health faculty and students from the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ recently traveled to Bethel and two nearby rural communities to provide free speech, language, and hearing screenings.
Lynn Troyer, an academic advisor for the School of Nursing at the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ, traveled to Bethel as part of the Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ-Rural Community Overdose Response Project (AK-RCORP).
In May 2026, the Center for Alcohol and Addiction Studies (CAAS) proudly co-sponsored the Pathways to Recovery Conference hosted by the State of Â鶹ÎÞÂë°æ’s Office of Substance Misuse and Addiction Prevention (OSMAP).
Professor of Public Health Dr. Virginia "Jenny" Miller is retiring after 18 years with UAA
