Nazik Hammad: Medical education in times of distress

“Just published with the bright fifth-year students at my alma mater, the University of Khartoum who worried about epidemiological shifts and future of cancer in Sudan. Now the public medical school is closed and possibly looted because of conflict. Medical education in times of distress!”
