This conference provides a venue for graduates, trainees, and prospective MD/PhD students and their allies to share their scholarship, build community and to foster dialogue over the issues and work in which physician-scholars engage. Research presentations will feature scholars, medical, graduate, and prospective students working in a wide range of disciplines.
