Two Geisel School of Medicine Students RISE

Gretchen Carpenter MED’29 and Raymond Huang MED’29 are among 100 medical students from across the U.S. selected to participate in the AAMC’s summer leadership program RISE: Developing Future Leaders in Academic Medicine and Science for Rising Second Year Medical Students. The program is designed to equip students with essential leadership skills through storytelling and reflection that will support their journey through medical school and beyond.

Envisioning the Future One Step at a Time

Cassie Rendon, a Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa and an Oglala Lakota, chose Geisel because of ample opportunities to work with the Native American population and Indian Health Services to achieve her goal of reducing Indian health disparities.

MD-PhD Student Cynthia Hahn Named 2015-16 Syvertsen Fellow

Cynthia Hahn has been named this year’s Rolf C. Syvertsen Fellow. Earlier this month, Hahn and five of her classmates were chosen as the 2015-16 Syvertsen Scholars. These merit awards honor the memory of Dr. Rolf C. Syvertsen, a former professor of anatomy, long-time dean, and beloved mentor to Dartmouth medical students from 1923 to 1960.
