Welcome to "The Bridge," the official podcast for the University of Maryland School of Pharmacy PATIENTS Program hosted by Rodney Elliott. The PATIENTS Program is the bridge between the community and researchers. The PATIENTS Program created this partnership to help researchers listen to the community’s voice to build a bridge to an effective learning health care community.

Listen to our conversation with Marianne Cloeren, MD, MPH, assistant professor, University of Maryland School of Medicine, and the University of Maryland, Baltimore public health officer, to learn about what monkeypox is, how it is transmitted, and updated information on how to treat this disease.
