Specialty Sections

Specialty Sections were created in 2021 to create a space for LHS+ pre-medical, medical students, alumni, and FPAC (e.g. faculty and physicians), who are interested in the same specialty, to network and discuss personal, professional, and academic-related concerns and opportunities.
