The Office of Graduate Medical Education is committed to training physicians from all backgrounds and developing an inclusive learning community among residents and fellows from all training programs.
There are also opportunities to serve on a multitude of committees within the School of Medicine and the UCSF campus that advance opportunity, belonging and engagement for the UCSF community. All trainees interested in building community and engagement are welcome to join us at future events. We also encourage all department chairs and program directors to share any ideas or suggestions for future activities.
Resident & Fellow Council
- Resident and Fellow's Council
The Resident and Fellow's Council (RFC) represents the more than 1,600 UCSF Resident and Clinical Fellows (ACGME or non-ACGME) in academic and administrative forums. The RFC encourages and welcomes new members to take part in and contribute to shaping the policies governing physician and patient life and to be active in improving the quality and value for their patients and peers. Read more about the resident co-chairs and the meeting schedule on the RFC page.
Opportunities
- Visiting Elective Scholarship Program (VESP)
The Visiting Elective Scholarship Program supported by the UCSF School of Medicine was established to encourage fourth year medical students who are underrepresented in medicine, interested in working with underserved populations, or interested in working with topics of diversity, equity, and inclusion to apply for a clinical elective at UCSF
