Thank you to everyone who came out to Lewis Barbecue last week to support MUSC’s CARES Clinic! 💙

CARES is a student-run organization providing free health care to hundreds of Charleston residents each year while giving our medical students an invaluable educational experience serving diverse patient populations.

Students also perform health screenings, hold medical appointments, and distribute fresh produce to local households. The clinic has partnered with the Charleston County School District to provide necessary vaccinations to students in need.

We had a fantastic time at AAMC's annual gathering in San Antonio, TX! Over 25 COM faculty, staff, students, and trainees showed up to share ideas and connect with colleagues from across the country.

A highlight was hearing Dr. Marylyn Ritchie, our new Chief AI Officer, present to the medical school deans. Michele Knoll Watson, our Assistant Dean of Evaluation, also drew a large crowd for her discussion on using data to evaluate residency applications.

MUSC is increasingly recognized as a leader in medical education, and we're proud of our commitment to innovation and growth in a changing landscape.
