Global Michigan Highlights Otolaryngology Partnership in Ghana

Several University of Michigan communicators recently returned from a trip to Ghana, where they covered, among other things, the growing partnership between the University's Department of Otolaryngology and the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) in Kumasi, Ghana.
