Joseph Ciano, DO, MPH, MS

I am applying to be a member-at-large of the GEMA executive committee for the 2025-2026 academic year. I have been a member of GEMA since July 2020 and have found the academy helpful in seeking mentorship and community among other like-minded global health professionals. GEMA has also provided me with opportunities to be engaged in projects in global health to which I otherwise would not have had access. If chosen for the member-at-large position, my aim is to assist other members of the executive committee in meeting the mission of GEMA, help other GEMA members engage in projects, obtain access to education on relevant topics, and find mentorship and community.
