Sixteen minority middle school students from Del Vallejo Leadership and STEAM Academy in San Bernardino recently visited Loma Linda University to participate in the inaugural "Doctor Me" Medical School Immersion Day.
The event was organized by a committee of second-year medical students in partnership with the School of Medicine’s chapter of the Student National Medical Association (SNMA), and Operation NEXTT (Navigating EXcellence Today for Tomorrow), a student-led initiative to help minority students recognize their potential to pursue meaningful careers early on in their educational journeys.
