By fostering an inclusive and supportive environment, we ensure that our medical community thrives, benefiting both our physicians and the diverse patient populations we serve.
Program Goals
Community Building
Throughout the year, networking and social events are organized to foster connections among our diverse group of medical students, trainees, and faculty within BMC and the Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine, in addition to neighboring academic medical institutions. These events create opportunities for mentorship, research, and career development.
Recruitment
Our trainees and faculty have the unique opportunity to represent Boston Medical Center and the Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine at both regional and national medical conferences, as well as at targeted medical schools, to engage and advise the next generation of diverse physicians.
Engagement
Cross-program engagement empowers residents to build strong connections, collaborate across specialties, and gain diverse insights that enhance patient care. It broadens problem solving skills, expands professional networks, and fosters a more supportive and dynamic learning environment, preparing them for real world teamwork.
