The dean of IUP’s proposed college of osteopathic medicine will be a panelist during a development summit in Harrisburg.
Dr. Miko Rose will speak June 3rd at the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia’s Rural Economic Development Summit. Her panel, “What Can Be Done in Rural Pennsylvania? The Power of Partnership,” brings together leading healthcare voices to tackle the rural health crisis.
Dr. Rose, a nationally recognized educator and psychiatrist, is leading IUP’s effort to launch the state’s only public osteopathic medical school aimed at addressing physician shortages in rural areas. The college is projected to generate $79 million annually for the region and has already secured over $34 million in funding and clinical partnerships.
Her appearance highlights IUP’s growing role in transforming rural healthcare and the power of collaboration to drive economic and medical change across Pennsylvania.
