AMSA Reproductive Health Scholars Program – Fall 2024
AMSA strives to empower physicians-in-training to effect change through education and advocacy. AMSA Scholars Programs are designed to provide medical and premed students with information not covered in traditional medical school curriculum and to foster an online learning community of future physicians.
The AMSA Reproductive Health Scholars Program addresses the “hidden curriculum” in medical school and prepares students to think critically about abortion-related and education and training opportunities.

Meeting Times: Mondays, Bi-Weekly, 8:00pm – 9:00pm EST
