Congratulations to Shahin for receiving two Strategic Investment Fund awards from UBC

Big congratulations to Shahin for receiving two Strategic Investment Fund awards from UBC.

The first entitled: “Indigenous MD Applicant Structured Multiple Mini Interview (MMI) Preparatory Workshop.” is valued at $50,490. This project will deliver MMI prep workshops for indigenous MD applicants with the goal of eventually increasing the number of indigenous physicians in BC and ultimately improving health for indigenous people in BC.

The second project entitled: “Outreach Ambassador and Mentorship Program” is valued at $104,000. THis project will provide expanded outreach, education, mentorship and support to future MD program applicants from populations that have typically been underrepresented in medicine.

Congratulations Shahin!
