As a medically trained researcher and advocate and the outgoing Executive Director of the Deaf Health Care and Biomedical Science Hub at RIT/NTID, Dr. Tiffany Panko is passionate about reproductive justice, especially for women like herself, who are deaf and use American Sign Language. A native of Rochester, NY, she was born to deaf parents and like them, she stayed in the area after college. She gives back to the Rochester community whenever she can, coordinating health education/outreach or bringing home-made treats to the office. From her time as a Research Assistant in the Deaf Studies Lab to working as a Health Project Coordinator at the National Center for Deaf Health Research, Tiffany has extensive experience in public health. Tiffany holds a Bachelor of Applied Arts and Sciences degree and an MBA from the Rochester Institute of Technology. She earned her Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of Rochester. When she isn’t working, she is doing yoga, cheering for the Buffalo Bills and the Green Bay Packers, or experimenting in the kitchen with her daughter.
