You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.197.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 10:52, 20 August 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

== Early life and education ==
Born in [[Jackson, Mississippi]], Tanner moved to [[Chicago]] where her father, Joseph Rush Tanner, practiced medicine, and her mother, Doris Murphy Tanner, stayed home to care for the family. She attended [[Englewood Technical Prep Academy|Englewood High School]], graduating in 1939. Tanner spent the first two years of her undergraduate education at [[Fisk University]], in [[Nashville, Tennessee]], then transferred to the [[University of Chicago]]'s premedical program. After earning her bachelor's degree, she attended [[Meharry Medical College]] in Nashville. While at Meharry Medical College, she was a member of the first sorority, at Meharry, [[Delta Sigma Theta]], and acted as treasurer.  Tanner graduated in 1946, then moved to [[New York City]], where she was an intern at [[Harlem Hospital Center|Harlem Hospital]] in 1946 and 1947. She then returned to the University of Chicago for her residency in [[pediatrics]], becoming the institution's first African-American resident. She also trained at Meharry's Hubbard Hospital for a time; she finished her postgraduate education in 1950.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" />

== Career ==
After completing her postgraduate education, Tanner moved back to Chicago for a short time, then married and moved to [[Detroit|Detroit, Michigan]] with her husband, Dr. Waldo Cain, in 1951,<ref name="Cunningham, Candice 2002">Cunningham, Candice. 2002. Dr. Natalia Tanner, Medical Pioneer. Michigan Chronicle, Feb 13, 2002. ((ProQuest|390188003)).</ref> where she became the city's first African-American board-certified pediatrician.<ref name="Cunningham, Candice 2002"/> She had been accepted as a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics while still in Illinois, its first African-American fellow, but was spurned by the Detroit Pediatric Society and the Michigan chapter of the AAP.

While working there, she fostered collaboration between the Society for Adolescent Medicine, the National Committee on Adolescence for the AAP, and the pediatric section of the [[National Medical Association]].<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" /> Tanner remained on staff at [[Children's Hospital of Michigan]] for over 50 years.<ref name="Cunningham, Candice 2002"/>

In 1968, Tanner became a professor at [[Wayne State University School of Medicine]], while continuing to practice medicine; she was appointed a full professor in 1992. In 1983 she became the first woman and first African-American to be president of the Michigan AAP chapter. Throughout her career, she worked to foster greater participation by people of color and women in medicine, with underserved populations and the [[NAACP]].<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" />

Tanner died in [[Southfield, Michigan]] on  14, 2018.<ref>[https://www.clickondetroit.com/news/iconic-barrier-breaking-detroit-physician-dr-natalia-tanner-cain-dies-at-96 "Iconic barrier-breaking Detroit physician, Dr. Natalia Tanner Cain, dies at 96", by Dane Sager-Kelly, ClickOnDetroit.com]</ref>
