Melanin In Medicine
This is a podcast to encourage any and all who are interested in becoming a doctor. We want to target underrepresented minorities in this podcast who may not have people they could use as a resource for how exactly to get through undergrad, MCAT studies and applying to medical school. As we transition into medical school this year we'd like to share our experiences and hope that our transparency will help others on their own journey!

We’re back to the school and back in the groove of things! We talked about our New Years resolutions, the guidance we’ve experienced and how being prideful has affected our path here. We hope you guys love it! Since we referred to advising our past selves I figured the picture could be a throwback undergrad picture of us 💕😁👩🏾⚕️👩🏽⚕️

Episode 26! Sorry it’s late guys, we have an exam this week 😔. This week we intended to discuss why it’s important to be involved in the community but basically it’s an episode about us needing to resolve our biases. We also discuss self-awareness (more bias talk) and how you shouldn’t be too wrapped up in image while in this journey. Don’t worry, it wraps up well at the end haha! Happy listening!
