This is a tremendous achievement that is worth celebration. I hope that you are enjoying your summer and taking a well-deserved break. As my classmates and I reflect on our first year, we discussed what we wish we would have known before we started medical school.
Lisa Willett, M.D., MACM, program director for the Tinsley Harrison Internal Medicine Residency Program and vice chair for Education and professor in the UAB Department of Medicine, has been named president-elect of the Association of Program Directors in Internal Medicine (APDIM) Council.
At UAB School of Medicine resources and opportunities are boundless, however our best asset is our students. We are proud of the diversity of experience, background, and interests that our students hold and contribute to their class each year. Read about and get to know four of our current MS1s.
