Testimonials
“The EMERGE program was an invaluable opportunity to pursue independent research and gain exposure to what a career in emergency medicine and research would look like.”
“The EMERGE program was an amazing opportunity to explore my interests in the intersection in emergency medicine and research. Emergency medicine is often perceived as field that does not conduct a lot of research, but this program proved wrong and gave an opportunity to delve into research and has demonstrated how future EM physicians can integrate research into their clinical practice!”
“This mentorship opportunity is invaluable: my mentor was very dedicated to her mentees, and she really cared about our growth as medical students/future researchers. The ER shadowship portion of this program gives you a taste of a day in the life of an EM resident, and serves as a great first-hand learning opportunity!”
“The EMERGE program was a great experience for me, providing a solid introduction to clinical research at a large academic institution and an opportunity to learn more about Emergency.”
