Dr. Mike Lehman, Director of the Brain Health Research Institute at Kent State, recently had the opportunity to provide biomedical science policy insights and guidance recommendations to the transition team working with President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation has selected two Kent State University College of Arts and Sciences faculty members, along with two community clinicians, for Clinical Scholars, an initiative that will provide funding and leadership training to the four team members. Their plan is to implement a project that will help veterinary professionals in Northeast Ohio address mental health stigmas they experience in their lives and provide usable techniques that can be incorporated into their veterinary practices.
