The Office of Diversity Affairs provides professional development opportunities to help underrepresented students, faculty, and house staff advance their opportunities in medicine.

Intersections Dialogue Series

The Intersections Dialogue Series explores the intersections of identities within medicine and healthcare. The series provides an opportunity for community discourse and reflection on biological, social, and cultural categories—including class, gender, sexual orientation, race, religion, and others—and their impact on and within medicine.

We offer these dialogues throughout the year. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, however, the Intersections Dialogue Series has been paused. We will resume at a later date.
