Future Health Professionals Visit Macon Campus

Last week, the Young Physician’s Initiative (YPI), in partnership with the surgery interest group, welcoming Morgan County high school’s Health Occupation Students of America group to our Macon campus. Students toured the medical school, viewed organs in the anatomy cadaver lab, and learned about the cadaver donor process, organ donation, and transplant surgery. This DISC project is led by MS-2s Bryce Greene, Bret Garza, Anna Gerald, and Myles Duncan and is affiliated with the rural division of YPI, which aims to mentor and encourage young students in rural areas to pursue medicine and help address the barriers they may face along the way.
