Clarifying who can apply for the Winn Pathway Program
Last week, we shared information about The Robert A. Winn Clinical Investigator Pathway Program (Winn CIPP), a 6-week intensive and immersive summer service-learning externship with opportunities to experience clinical research conducted in community-based clinical research settings.
It turns out that MS1s are not eligible for this program because of the need for an in-person component June 9 to July 20, 2025. We apologize for the confusion. For planning purposes: MS2s and MS3s are eligible if they do not have commitments for that time period (for example, are not enrolled in another course/clerkship).
The deadline to apply is Jan. 8, 2025. Learn more from the Winn Awards flyer.
MS1s invited to apply for Educational Quality Improvement Strategic Planning (EQISP) Committee
The Educational Quality Improvement Strategic Planning (EQISP) Committee is recruiting two first-year students to serve as members of the committee.
The EQISP Committee is charged with ensuring that UWSOM meets its educational goals for medical student programs and achieves excellence and innovation in our learning programs.
