Students of ���ӽ紫ý’s Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine also participated in Friday’s Match Day, with all 60 soon-to-graduate students securing residencies. Forty-one percent will remain in Nevada for their specialty training, according to school officials.

Today is a big day for the next wave of home grown physicians to learn where they "matched" for residency. We're talking about the soon to be graduate members of the Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine class of 2025! Just an hour before the big announcement, Dr. Marc Kahn came by on ARC to express his excitement for the students and how much this special moment meant to him. To celebrate the big day, there's a tradition of having themed "matching" days where last year, Dr. Kahn dressed up as Super Mario and this year is Harry Potter-themed!

Given the highly contagious nature of measles and the ongoing outbreak, some health officials expect continued spread could last a year. Texas is bearing the brunt of the outbreak, with the majority of the cases reported in the state.

U.S. Sen. Jacky Rosen, D-Nevada, has proposed the Physicians for Underserved Areas Act, which aims to bring more doctors to regions in need. The bill, S.709, was announced as Nevada ranks 46th for states in primary care physicians per 100,000 people. All 17 of the state’s counties have healthcare professional shortages.

With Las Vegas expected to reach a population of 3 million by 2042, health care in an already underserved community and attracting medical professionals will become more important than ever.

Dr. Marc J. Kahn, Dean: “My finest moment was watching our first class graduate. Seeing 60 students, 30 percent of whom are first generation college students, receive their MD degrees was truly an inspiration and something I’ll never forget.”
