about us
Ours is a research education program that helps USMLE applicants to establish research profile on their curriculum vitae through journal publications and conference presentations.
This program is led under the mentorship of the US-trained resident physicians where students will learn how to write papers and be an author of their specialty-driven research project. We have catered the needs of applicants interested in family/internal medicine, psychiatry, neurology, pediatrics and OBGYN.
Our mission is to inspire and encourage medical students/graduates as they journey through ERAS applications to achieve their dreams in medicine.
