Media Relations
Our office provides information to media outlets for all the UW health sciences schools – Dentistry, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Social Work and Public Health – as well as for several health institutes at the University of Washington. Our goal is to help news reporters and the public better understand medicine, nursing and public health, and how our researchers, educators, providers and students work for the health of people everywhere: locally; regionally in Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana, and Idaho; nationally and internationally.
