Dylane Davis is a fourth-year medical student originally from Los Angeles, by way of Fayetteville, North Carolina. Prior to medical school Dylane was first introduced to Quality improvement when she spent a year in Malawi, prior to medical school, working in an STI clinic on a HIV partner notification project focused on improving acute HIV testing. She recently returned to Malawi as a medical student to after complete a NIH Global Health Fogarty Fellowship where she participated in clinical outcomes within the surgical department. During her research year she developed a strong interest in Urology, and decided to pursue Urology as a career. She hopes to continue to strengthen her research background with quality improvement to further improve health access, and health equity on both a macro- and micro-scale. This year as a Clinician Leadership Quality and Safety Scholar, she is working with Dr. Ray Tan, to streamline accessibility and scheduling times for prostate cancer biopsies.
