EPISODE 1

Voices of URiM Premeds 
LISTEN HERE
Welcome to Season 3! To kick off this season, we hand off the mic to three incredible URiM (underrepresented in medicine) undergraduate pre-med students to share their journeys into the medical field. We hear about their common challenges, their strong sense of purpose to be a physician advocate for their community, and about their vision to improve the diversity and inclusivity of the medical field. This episode will leave you inspired!

Show Notes

​


[00:00] Intro
  • Introduction to season 3 and the episode

[04:28] Elizza’s URiM story
  • Responsibility to increase diversity and inclusion: Elizza tells us about how her negative experiences with being treated as a ‘second-class citizen’ in the healthcare system motivate her to become a physician so she can increase diversity and inclusion as well as bridge disparities in healthcare. 

[09:19] Myles’s URiM story
  • Role of support and advocacy: Myles recalls the support system that allowed him to navigate the pre-med process and his desire to advocate for his community as a physician.

[16:25] Jana’s URiM story
  • Importance of mentorship and programs that target URiM pre-meds: Jana shares how her mentors inspired her to pursue physician leadership roles and the importance of programs targeting URiM pre-meds in increasing diversity and inclusion in medicine.

[21:59] Closing Statements
  • Discussion of themes present in the URiM pre-meds’ stories
    • Exposure to the medical field through family experiences with illness and/or employment in healthcare
    • Desire to pursue medicine to advocate not just for themselves and their families, but also their communities
    • Knowledge of implicit and explicit biases as well as individual and systemic inequity in healthcare
    • Programs that outreach to URiM pre-meds are tools to increase diversity and inclusion in medicine
