Diversity

DICE provides outreach to strengthen the pipeline of diverse individuals for healthcare and biomedical careers; in regard to diversity, our ultimate goal is to identify and recruit talented individuals from diverse backgrounds. To accomplish this, we partner with trainees and faculty to support pipeline programs at every stage of education:

Medical Student Groups

DICE works directly with medical student groups such as: 

  • Asian Pacific American Medical Student Association (APAMSA)

  • Student National Medical Association (SNMA) / Latino Medical Student Association (LMSA) 
  • Women in Medicine
