Student Organization - Open to all students

Mission

Mission
Welcome to the Code Black and Latinx Overcoming Obstacles in Medicine (BLOOM) Mentorship Program, developed by medical students at Weill Cornell Medicine (WCM) with the support of the Diversity Center of Excellence (DCOE). This longitudinal program is designed for underrepresented undergraduate students attending CUNY colleges interested in pursuing a career in medicine. Our mission is to equip undergraduate students with the resources to learn about health equity and disparities in medicine, get early exposure to practical medical skills, and receive individualized mentorship from WCM medical students. Most importantly, we want to incite a passion for medicine and hope to inspire a new generation of doctors.

This program will be offered to undergraduate students from CUNY colleges who underwent an application and interview process and were selected to participate in Code BLOOM. Each year will consist of a curriculum curated for students in a specific point of their undergraduate training.

The structure of the program is as follows:

Mentorship

Pairing with a WCM MS1-MS3 or PA mentor

Bimonthly mentor-mentee meetings to formally discuss topics related to medical and graduate school preparation and training

“Cafecitos” consisting of informal meetings with Code BLOOM mentors and mentees

Didactics

Bimonthly health care disparities speaker series

Skills workshops

Partnership with the Emergency Medicine Interest Group (EMIG) and the WCM/NYP Simulation Center to get exposure to and practice medical techniques such as venipuncture, suturing, CPR, and more.

Community Outreach Events

Partership with Heart to Heart, a student-run mobile clinic aimed at providing cardiovascular health screenings to underserved populations across New York City.

Mentees are expected to participate in a minimum of 3 Heart-2-Heart events across the calendar year.

Capstone Requirement

Students will choose a topic of interest related to healthcare disparities to work on with their mentor. At the end of the program, students will present their project to the cohort.
