Diversity and Inclusion in Medical Education with AMBOSSador Christina Motilall

AMBOSS: Beyond the Textbook

Listen to our incredible AMBOSSador Christina, as she tells us all about her diverse medical school journey and what she feels might be missing in terms of diversity within medical education. In addition to being a medical student, Christina is highly involved in the activist community in New York, Branch President, and founder of the American Medical Women’s Association at the American University of Antigua and American Medical Student Association Scholar. Today’s episode will not only talk about diversity within medical education, but also look at how medical students and future generations can continue to encourage increasing diversity throughout their studies.
