The photo shows Mr. Combs and the clowns at the Black Family Health & Wellness Association Health Fair, March 29th in Omaha. In addition to serving on the Go Local Nebraska Advisory Committee, Mr. Combs serves on other National Library of Medicine committees, and is featured in this year's Aetna African American Calendar (July) that can be downloaded from this site: http://www.aetna.com/diversity/aahcalendar/2008/index.html

Another of our Advisory Committee members has had some great career news this year.

In this new role, he will be enhancing the academic mission of the Health Sciences Division.
