Gender Disparities, easy one?

Is it so easy to get disparities away? When is it so deep within cultural believes, society is unfair as it is, more of this can be seen in low/middle income countries, even within simple things and as popular as they can be, like this video above,
as in count for gender disparities...Is it an easy task to overcome?...
Of course it't not, etiher way, we are here fighting for it...

Getting the Fieldworkers Trained

Hey, this is Joao again!!

Well, it´s been a while since the fogarty experience at NIH, still waiting in Lima to go to Puno, this last few weeks have been very intense..
The three research sites for a NHLBI poject have gather in Pampas from San Juan de Miraflores, shanty town in perurban area from lima. My mentors came to ge the fieldworkers trained in here. The pulmonary research lines have been drawn and setup. Tons of fieldworkers started getting spirometry among other procedures. Quite something to have three sites running at the same time, not too many weeks for training and then pilots all over the sites in order to get the project running accordingly to GCP and ethics, mostly fo quality control and assurance.
Hope to get things going well!! Life so far has been wonderful and crazy, just Love It.
Now Echos, cIMT and other things are comming in the next weeks...yay!!!
