On Tuesday, April 30th, we hosted our very first event at Brace Commons. The event was co-sponsored by the Nathan Smith Society, the pre-med organization at Dartmouth College. Around 50 students attended the “Meet Geisel Mentors” dinner where we paired medical students with undergraduates. We had delicious Thai food and had a wonderful time connecting mentors with mentees! We were fortunate to have our faculty advisor and anesthesiologist Dr. Vinca Chow speak about her involvement with APAMSA when she was a medical student and help stress the importance of mentorship. Much thanks to Dr. Witters, Kristal Wong, and Rachael Chacko and the Nathan Smith Society for helping us organize this. We are still in the process of pairing medical students with undergraduates who may be interested in medicine, so give us a shout if you would like to get involved!
