In this episode of PeDRA Pearls, host Jenn Dawson welcomes Mitchell Hanson, MD, MPH, PeDRA’s new Education Fellow, for a conversation about connection, service, and intentionality in pediatric dermatology. Mitchell shares how his path through neuroscience, public health, medical education, and community-centered initiatives led him to PeDRA, and reflects on the importance of keeping patients at the center of research and education. Listeners will hear about his passion for making pediatric dermatology more accessible, the lessons he learned through global health work and SunSafe Augusta, and how setbacks can become meaningful redirections toward purpose.
