Networking
“Networking allows medical students to learn from those who have walked the path before them, build supportive peer communities, and find mentors who reflect their interests and identities. It turns medical school from an individual journey into a shared one. Meaningful networks among peers, alumni, and affinity groups provide the guidance, community, and opportunities that help medical students grow.” - Dr. Cèsar Briceño - Assistant Dean for Student Social and Professional Networks
ASCEND provides a myriad of formal and informal opportunities for Perelman students to connect with others during their medical school journey. See below for more information about structural ways belonging and community are fostered for our students.
