M.S. in Oral Health Sciences program at Boston University

 

It gives me great pleasure to share that the M.S. in Oral Health Sciences program at Boston University has accepted another talented class of students interested in improving their academic credentials for dental school even with the challenges we all face due to COVID-19.  Additionally, the 2021 matriculating class is quite a diverse group with students historically underrepresented in dentistry and those from disadvantaged backgrounds representing close to 40% of our incoming class. I appreciate the role you have played in this achievement. BU is committed to providing a ‘second chance’ program for all students pursuing a career in dentistry. In keeping with this mission, we provide all students with individualized academic advising, professional development through our enrichment series, and support throughout the program.

As you advise students seeking to improve their credentials for dental school admission, please share the brochure as well as invite them to attend one of our upcoming informational webinars.  BU OHS Program Webinars are held monthly that provides general information and program overview.  Please visit our website to register and learn more about the OHS program.

More than 90% of our program graduates who apply to dental schools are accepted and we are committed to providing a high level of support as they navigate the AADSAS process.

COMING UP: Pitt CPHS: Pre-Health Networking Fair

 

University of Pittsburgh Coalition of Pre Health Students (CPHS) seeks to unite the Pre-Health Community at Pitt and serve as a collective voice to further the combined aspirations, efforts, and objectives of all pre-health organizations. This inspired us to organize a Pre-Health Networking event to bring together all of the pre-health students on campus to participate in a conference-style event that emphasizes interprofessionalism and collaboration. 

CPHS would thus like to extend an invitation to all interested students at Emory to our Sixth Annual 2022 Pre-Health Networking Fair, which will take place virtually on Sunday, March 27th from 2:30-3:30 pm EST. Because our event will take place virtually this year, we have extended invitations to schools across the country. Given the reputation that Emory has for producing motivated future healthcare providers, we believe that the Pre-Health Networking Fair is an amazing opportunity for networking and learning more about the interconnected pre-health community. We ask that you please consider passing the details of this event onto your students, given that many of them are probably planning on getting involved in the Pre-Health field in the future.

The Pre-Health Networking fair will feature 30+ graduate programs from schools across the country. Attendees will be able to speak individually or in group settings with professionals from graduate programs like Medical, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Dental, Physician Assistant, Public Health, and more!

As stated above, due to these unprecedented times, we will be holding our Networking Fair virtually this year. Because of this, we have waived the cost of tickets. Therefore, admission is free to any and all students!

Registration is required through Eventbrite. The link is included below. 

If you or your students have any questions regarding the event, please feel free to contact our Summit Director Abby Galeano at ALG261@pitt.edu, or our Marketing Director Emily Valazza at EMV33@pitt.edu. If you are interested in participating in the Networking Fair to represent a program at your institution, please reach out as well!

We hope that your students will be able to join us in March!

Emory Summer Transplant Internship

 The Emory Transplant Center is pleased to announce that after a two year moratorium because of the COVID-19 pandemic, we will again offer the Emory Summer Transplant Internship, a phenomenal opportunity for pre-med college students interested in gaining an intensive exposure to the fascinating field of organ transplantation.  This program offers 4-6 college students the opportunity to shadow transplant surgeons, nephrologists and hepatologists as they care for patients with end-stage renal and/or liver disease.  Interns will enjoy a comprehensive exposure to all facets of medical care, observing patients in the clinic (as they are being counseled before transplant and cared for after transplant), in the hospital, and in the operating room.  Students will have the opportunity to observe kidney, liver and pancreas transplant surgeries, including living donor kidney transplants.  Additionally, participants will visit the Georgia LifeLink organ recovery center (where many organ procurements take place) and visit the histocompatibility labs to learn how organs are matched to recipients.

 When:  The program will be held July 1 through July 29, 2022.  There will be no expected weekend or overnight responsibilities (although students could be offered the possibility of observing organ procurement surgeries over the weekend if they desire).

 Application deadline:  The deadline to be considered for the program is 4/15/2022.  To apply, please send your CV (including current GPA) to the course co-directors, Drs. William Kitchens (whkitch@emory.edu) and Octav Cristea (octav.cristea@emoryhealthcare.org).  Notifications of acceptance to the program will be made in early May.  We regret that no housing or stipend is provided by the program.  Importantly, Emory Healthcare COVID-19 policies are constantly in flux, so we reserve the right to abbreviate the program or cancel it outright if changing COVID-19 conditions (such as the advent of another surge) changes Emory Healthcare policies towards medical observerships.

 Questions?  Please contact Dr. William Kitchens (whkitch@emory.edu) and Octav Cristea (octav.cristea@emoryhealthcare.org), course co-directors and transplant surgeons at Emory
