ACCOMPLISHMENTS

• The review article in Pediatrics in Review has a high impact value amongst practicing pediatricians and pediatricians-in-training. Hopefully this article will influence practice, stimulate dialogue, and be the first of many articles regarding cultural competence in this journal. Reference: Kodjo C. Cultural Competence in Clinician Communication. Pediatrics in Review 30 (2): 57-64. February 2009.
• The chapter in the AAP Textbook of Adolescent Health will have high impact amongst health providers who take care of adolescents. Hopefully the chapter will also have an impact across disciplines such as psychology, social work, nursing, nutrition, etc. In press: Kodjo CM and Castle K.
