About the entry
From the Judges' Report
The judging team found these articles highly readable from a non-specialist’s perspective, and we noted how well the articles spoke to a wide range of audiences from physicians to policy makers to the general public. The article on the impact of homelessness on a child’s medical care was well-written and moving, as was the piece on transgender teens. Three of the articles had a compelling theme of “sex, gender and medicine” and all five articles did a good job of showcasing the school’s research strengths and demonstrating how Stanford Medicine is addressing challenging and timely issues in the medical field.
