Our HAND at DGSOM chapter builds upon the foundation of the UCLA undergraduate chapter, with a mission to enhance awareness and education of neurological diseases among medical students and the broader community.
Our Goals:
- Serve as a bridge between undergraduate and medical students, offering mentorship that includes guidance on medical school, clinical rotations, and specialty selection
- Host educational panels featuring medical students, residents, fellows, and industry leaders to share insights into the field of neurology and related disciplines
- Advocate for patients with neurological conditions through community outreach and educational events, partnering with UCLA clinicians and patient advocacy groups
