Member Spotlight: Mark Corkins, MD, CNSC, FASPEN, AGAF, FAAP
b'This video honors Dr. Mark Corkins, Division Chief of Pediatric Gastroenterology at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center and Le Bonheur Children\\u2019s Hospital. Dr. Corkins said he was fortunate in that nutrition was a focus in every step of his training. In medical school, his biochemistry professor said that students didn\\u2019t get enough nutrition and was given an hour each week to teach it. He later found out this focus on nutrition was not the norm in medical training. Dr. Corkins works as an academic physician and loves to teach nutrition. He says there are still huge holes in nutrition knowledge, despite significant progress in recent years. There are still lots of questions that need answers. He advises junior faculty to pick one question and answer it well\\u2014do it right, and more questions will follow. He also shares how ASPEN has helped him advance and grow professionally.\\n\\nPhysician Spotlight is a forum for outstanding Senior Leaders, Young Rising Stars, and International Colleagues in the field of nutrition to discuss important topics and ideas that impact patient care.
