Mentorship Program
 


Why a Mentorship Program?
The Board of Directors of the MDS instituted a MDS Mentorship Program to foster interest in careers in medical dermatology, especially in the care of patients with serious dermatologic disease. Participants spend one month at an institution under the direction of a senior MDS member.

 

The program is open to residents, post-dermatology residency fellows and junior faculty members who are available to spend one month with an MDS mentor.  Awardees will receive up to a $5,000 to cover transportation, lodging and other expenses. 

Information on the 2009 MDS Mentorship Program will be available soon.
