If you know of any African American research scientists/medical doctors 50 and under, chances are they came through some training experience funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). If they did, they were probably introduced to the NIH by Joe Ager. I had a front row seat at the NIH to watch how Joe and several other colleagues traded their careers in the labs to become EEO Officers for the various Institutes so that their mission of finding the cures could transition to the next generation of scientists of color. This was no easy task because as with every turn we take into the professions, our intellectual capacity is always doubted--especially if we matriculated at HBCUs. I was captivated as Joe shared his journey from Shelby, NC, to the heights of the biomedical research establishment. I know you will be too.
