RCMI2012
International Health Disparities Symposium Dedicated to Dr. Sidney A.
McNairy, Jr.
The Research Centers in Minority Institutions (RCMI) 2012
Symposium Planning Committee is pleased to announce the dedication of the
13th International Symposium on Health Disparities to Dr. Sidney A. McNairy,
Jr. Dr. McNairy’s twenty-five years of exemplary leadership contributed
to the development and growth of the RCMI program. He championed the
idea that researchers in minority and other small and developing institutions
can compete with scientists at majority institutions if presented with the same
resources and opportunities. Dr. McNairy worked to foster biomedical
research environments in minority institutions that have given thousands of
researcher’s access to scientific and educational resources and ensured that
a diverse group of scientists contribute to the biomedical research advances
that lead to improved health for all.
