We pride ourselves in supporting the development of a robust and diverse physician-scientist workforce. Our team is committed to building value for our members, and thus we are excited about our partnership with ScholarRx. By providing cutting-edge resources in medical curricula, this partnership will enable our members to support their own training as the next generation of physician-scientists and leaders in science and medicine."
