In celebration of Black History Month, CU Anschutz is launching the “Get To Know” series to highlight Black excellence on campus year-round – leaders, innovators and change makers who are accomplishing the extraordinary in their fields every day. The “Get To Know” series will expand throughout the year as an inclusive platform for voices on our campus. 

This week, James E. Carter, Jr., MD, assistant professor of medicine at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, discusses how personal connections brought him to specialize in cardiology and why he’s so passionate about his students becoming not only great doctors, but great advocates.
