Narrative Medicine is a clinical practice, a method, and a field of study that centers individual and community stories in the service of health and social justice. By supporting self-reflection and providing a framework for attending to the stories of others, narrative medicine can help practitioners in their efforts to transform the health of individuals, communities, and health care systems.

This two-year program has two areas of concentration: one concentration is focused on forensic toxicology/chemistry and the second on forensic/analytical genetics. Through the common core curriculum, students in both concentrations will have foundational information and skill set in advanced forensic science, writing, communication, professionalism, ethics, legal perspectives, and workplace-specific laboratory skills. Through a rigorous targeted finishing curriculum in either concentration, including internship experiences and cognate elective courses, the graduates will be competitive for workforce deployment in the areas of private industry drug testing, private DNA analysis, forensic governmental divisions, and hospital clinical labs.

This virtual workshop will provide an in-depth review of the AAMC competencies, personal statements, and secondary applications. Participants will also partake in a mock interview.

Applicants must also be either a US citizen, permanent resident, or asylee/refugee. Apply here.
