Science Corner: I Wan’na Be Like You

May 8, 2024 by Andy Walsh Leave a Comment

I know the world faces a lot of weighty issues right now. Some of you may be on college campuses with recent or ongoing police activity, cancelled or disrupted commencement events and other types of disturbances to what is usually a celebratory season.

The Residency Match: Medicine’s Romantic Comedy

February 23, 2018 by Scott Santibanez Leave a Comment

For graduating 4th year medical students, spring brings warm weather, seasonal allergies, March Madness’ and the dreaded Residency Match. The Match is kind of like medicine's version of online dating. Med students and residencies consider and rank their most eligible suitors, hopefully leading to a 3-to-5 year committed relationship. As Match results are revealed, med schools announce proudly, “X percent of our students got their first choice for residency!” Then, as in any romantic comedy, residency programs and new … [Read more...] about The Residency Match: Medicine’s Romantic Comedy
