The Free Clinic Research Collective

The MSPress Blog is proud to support The Free Clinic Research Collective.

The  Collective will debut in 2015. This platform will enable medical students to present research findings from student-run clinics aimed at providing healthcare to medically underserved individuals. Discussions on the efficacy of clinic organization, volunteer recruitment and retention, fundraising, follow-up rates, community engagement, publicity, and public health improvement are only a number of topics that the Collective will address. Medical schools across the globe have students and physicians that dedicate their time to free or low-cost clinics. Facilitating communication about this work amongst leaders will strengthen the efficiency of these devoted projects.

If you are a clinic coordinator, volunteer, or researcher interested in getting involved with or publishing within The Free Clinic Research Collective, contact the MSPress Editor-in-Chief: editorinchief@themspress.org
