BRI Student Chapter Leaders

You care about the future of medicine — you ARE the future of medicine! 
 
Want to ...
  — learn how to make your BRI Chapter an effective, vital part of your school's educational program?
  — know how to start and maintain a vibrant BRI Chapter that hosts exceptional, noteworthy debates, lectures, lunch presentations, and talks?
  — be part of the answer to establishing American healthcare that really works... for everyone?
 
You will...
  — meet like-minded student leaders from medical schools across the country
  — exchange ideas, support and experience to help each other succeed in all areas
 
If we are going to reach the hearts and minds of young physicians, YOU are the ones who will make it happen; without you, the values and ideas we share will NOT be heard in medical schools.
