Mark your calendars for the next installment of Med Moth, happening this week on Wednesday, March 20th at 6:30 p.m. in the Albert Sherman Center Multi-Purpose Room (Cafeteria)! Med Moth is an event based on The Moth Story Hour where 6-8 members of the UMass Chan Community (SOM, GSN, GSBS, and Baystate) share stories for 5-10 minutes each. Each talk is about the speaker's journey into medicine, meaningful patient encounters, or other experiences that have shaped their personal or professional identity in health care.
On Wednesday, March 6, 2024 from 6-8 p.m. in the Lazare Auditorium (S1-607), UMass Chan Medical School, you are invited to come and engage with longtime UMass Chan faculty member Lucy Candib, and her co-author Will Miller around their book Family Doctors Say Goodbye.
This will be an interactive discussion with the authors about transitions in medicine and how one eventually winds down a career.
