The American Physician Scientists Association (APSA) is a trainee-led student organization for trainees in all phases of the physician-scientist training pathway.
An important part of APSA’s mission is undergraduate mentorship, with the goal of fostering the success of undergraduate students interested in a career as a physician scientist.
APSA is now beginning the fourth year of our undergraduate mentorship program. Through the program, undergraduate students interested in pursing a career as a physician scientist are paired with professional student mentors (MD, MD/PhD, or equivalent).
The year-long program provides one-on-one mentorship to undergraduate students, giving these students a point of contact for information and advice about physician scientist training.
While APSA undergraduate membership is required for participation, APSA is offering free undergraduate membership to any student who self-reports financial hardship.
