In the sixth episode of VF's Vasculitis Visionaries, Ben and Kaley are joined by Dr. Aamir Hussain, a current resident in internal medicine at Hofstra University who will soon begin a dermatology residency at Georgetown University. Dr. Hussain, who received his Master of Public Policy degree and medical degree from the University of Chicago, explains how his interest in vasculitis started and how current changes to medical education, including the shift of the United States Medical Licensing Examination Step 1 to pass/fail, may affect how medical students learn about rare diseases. Listen in to hear about vasculitic rashes, healthcare policy, and the role the Vasculitis Foundation has played in Dr. Hussain's education.
