Lieutenant General Robert Miller, MD, the surgeon general of the U.S. Air Force and Space Force, toured UNMC in September and called UNMC the country’s premiere biocontainment resource.
Chris Kratochvil, MD, Global Center for Health Security Distinguished Chair, joined Lt. Gen. Miller during his visit. He said the visit was a chance to showcase current collaborations with the U.S. Air Force and consider expanded collaborations.
“This is a tremendously valuable and valued collaboration,” Dr. Kratochvil said. “The return of the Air Force surgeon general with a broader cohort of his team members truly exemplifies their prioritization of partnering with us and interest in expanding that collaboration even further.”
