Born to a poor Hispanic family in New York City, Dr. Carmona, experienced homelessness, hunger, and health disparities during his youth. His experiences greatly sensitized him to the relationships among culture, health, education and economic status. His keynote — "Diversity Lessons from the 'Hood'" — will include lessons in diversity and health care, and social determinants as predictors of health
and future potential.

Following Dr. Carmona's keynote (3–3:30 pm) The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center's Alejandro Diez, MD, FASN, will present a 30-minute Hispanic/Latino culture course titled, "The Latino Patient: a New Paradigm in Healthcare Delivery".
