The purpose of WVU Rural Health Day, slated for April 4, is to give pre-health students interested in rural medicine the opportunity to hear about and participate in activities that will enhance, impassion and provide support in the sometimes daunting path to applying to medical school.
Pre-health undergraduate students will participate in hands-on workshops consisting of suturing, diagnostic ultrasound, emergency medicine and behavioral medicine. There will also be a rural health panel discussion with rural physicians from across the state and a student-led panel discussion.
Interested students may apply. The deadline is March 28.
