Judy Willis
to Judy Marie Willis, a media professional with more than two decades in the industry, who recently named Managing Editor of the School of Health Sciences’ Journal of Best Practices in Health Professions Diversity: Research, Education and Policy.
Her appointment coincides with the re-focusing of the Journal, which has strengthened its mission to address issues of diversity in the health professions. The school is producing a scholarly publication that examines the complex issues that account for health disparities in communities of color, as well as, the practices and/or policies that facilitate or hinder diversity within and across health professions.
“I am extremely pleased that Ms. Willis has agreed to join us as Managing Editor of the Journal,” said Dr. Peggy Valentine, dean of the School of Health Sciences. “As we position the Journal of Best Practices as the definitive scholarly publication related to diversity in health professions, having a managing editor of her caliber will be of much value.”
