My name is Steve Engel, and I am am the committee chair for the mentorship program of ACRO. I wanted to share a bit about our mentorship program for medical students interested in Radiation Oncology. This is an opportunity for you to meet with a radiation oncology resident at ASTRO 2017 in San Diego for those of you planning to attend.
ACRO’s mentorship program provides a unique opportunity for residents and medical students from around the country to be matched together for a meeting at the annual ASTRO conference. A link to the survey to sign up is below. These questionnaires helps our team better understand each individual’s personal interests and goals in a mentorship relationship. Based on these responses, mentors and mentees may be paired based on any number of commonalities – disease site, treatment techniques, geography, or any other shared passion. Once assigned, we will facilitate arranging a one-on-one meeting between resident mentors and medical students at the upcoming annual ASTRO conference in San Diego, California from September 24-27. We believe these relationships are mutually beneficial. It grants a unique opportunity to ask a resident who was recently in your shoes about research, externships, applications, and whatever else you are interested in.
Thank you very much!
