    Melanie Molina, MD, MAS is a current fellow of the National Clinician Scholars Program--a program which trains clinicians as change agents to drive policy-relevant research, cultivate health equity, and eliminate health disparities. She works clinically as an emergency physician at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital. Her research interests and experiences are unified by two goals: 1) to mitigate disparities in health care access and improve comprehensive emergency care for vulnerable populations, and 2) to create a safe and equitable environment in the field of emergency medicine, such that its workforce begins to reflect the diverse population for which it cares.
