Ethiopia March 1, 2015

Our team all made it here without significant issues.Ours is a small team this time - 2 audiologists, Dr. Glenn and myself and Desi our administrator.  We met up with another ENT surgeon and two ENT residents who have been here before, and we will be collaborating all week.  We also linked with three medical students that I have been working with who are here from Vanderbilt for 10 weeks working on some projects.
It was a non-patient care day and relatively quiet.  Two of the team members got in early this morning.  The ENT doctors gave some lectures today;  we met with a variety of people throughout the day talking about collaborative projects for ENT, hearing loss and anesthesia education.  We will continue those conversations throughout the week.
Tomorrow is a holiday, so we will just have clinic and have some educational programs with the ENT residents.
It is warm and sunny here - a big change for most of us from the cold snowy northeast US!  It is wonderful to see old friend and make some new ones!
