Mentoring Brown Bag Lunches
Brown Bag lunches are monthly informal meetings with the Associate Directors of the MD-PhD Program to discuss topics in which students express interest. These topics are generally centered around long-term career advice for MD-PhD students, as well as talks on practical skills like grant writing and balancing clinical and research commitments. Recent topics of discussion have included:
“Grant Writing 101”
“Clinical and Basic Science Departments: Implications for Your Career”
“Short-track Residency"
"Clinical versus research time: What is a meaningful balance?"
“The life you see for yourself in the future: how do my choices now affect my opinions later?”
“Decision points: when and how do I decide on what I want to do in my professional life?”
