Sea Island Community Outreach


Lynnette White, leader of the Plantation Singers, performs at a celebration held on John's Island. More than 200 people attended, including volunteers from MUSC Presidential Scholars, as MUSC researchers explained results from various projects, including the Center for Health Disparities Research. Topics included studies on diabetes, dental disease, lupus and cancer (Hollings Cancer Center (CADRE). Research participants also shared their stories.



Above, Dr. Jyotika Fernandes attends Building Bridges through Research. The event allows health care professionals and community members to build bonds.
