COVID-related adjustments to our program
The advent of the COVID-19 pandemic transformed MD-PhD training practically overnight: at the end of March 2020, classes were moved to zoom, laboratories were closed and clinical rotations were cancelled. Nonetheless, the resilience and leadership demonstrated by our students and faculty kicked in, with students shifting gears to help with rescheduling clinical visits to telehealth, getting involved in ground-breaking COVID-19 related research (see publications in the next article), and finding new ways to stay engaged with coursework, research and each other as the pandemic played out.
