“My poster highlighted patient-oriented research,” said Massoud. “This research deals with and includes mechanisms of human disease, therapeutic interventions, clinical trials, epidemiologic and behavioral studies, and outcomes of research and health services, to name a few examples.”
Although Massoud is excited he won the individual award, he said it was a team effort in the research with several people: his research associate, Capt. James Dizmang, MD, internal medicine (medical advisor); Maj. Kathryn Burtson, MD, internal medicine residency program director, 88th Medical Group and associate program director at Wright State University Medical School; Maj. Joshua Scott, chief rheumatologist, 88th Medical Group; and Massoud’s advisor, Ronald Markert, Ph.D., faculty, Department of Medicine, biostatistics, Wright State University.
