Congratulations to Audrey Le and Jackie Arquiette! Both are VCU School of Medicine students who participated on our health brigade to rural Honduras this past June and did research projects on indoor air pollution and the microbiologic and clinical efficacy of our water filter program, respectively. Their research was featured by the VCU News center today.

Audrey and Jackie were able to design, conduct and analyze their data within less than one year. Their results will be shared with the local Ministry of Health and community leaders when we return to Honduras in January. Both studies will a have a direct impact on the health of the people we serve.
