Diversity in Medicine Conference

The aim of this meeting is to unite students and faculty from across North America to further a dialogue about increasing diversity within the field of medicine and foster collaboration between individuals involved in initiatives in this sphere. The conference events will include keynote speakers, panels, posters and oral presentations, interactive workshops, networking and social events.

The Diversity in Medicine Conference is hosted by the Doctors of Tomorrow Program at the University of Michigan Medical School. The planning committee of the conference welcomes abstract submissions on primary research projects or innovative programs that address the need to increase diversity among health care providers. Submissions for poster and oral presentations will be accepted. Please send all inquiries about the conference to dimconference@gmail.com.

Community Partners

In 2015, we began to partner with grassroots organizations in the Detroit community. The students and organizations worked together to create a Community Health Capstone Project. The capstone project provides students with the opportunity to work in small teams lead by medical student leaders to identify a community health issue and partner with a local organization. Students visit the local organization and present their proposed solutions at a formal symposium.

Our community partners for this project have included:
