The UC Davis Office of Student and Resident Diversity and Graduate Medical Education Office invites all 4th-year medical students, medical graduates, and current residents who are seeking to begin a residency and fellowship in Summer 2025 to attend our virtual gathering to learn about UC Davis via Zoom.

Connect with residents and faculty of historically underrepresented backgrounds and engage with leadership from multiple departments. The program will include a welcome from UC Davis Health leadership and an overview of resources and opportunities available to residents.

Representatives from residency and fellowship programs will facilitate breakout sessions to discuss the application process, interview tips, program highlights, and provide opportunities to hear from current residents.
