Project Subject/Topic
Founded in 2020, the CHIME (Critical Humanities in Medical Education) initiative unites a coalition of graduate students dedicated to raising critical consciousness in medical education. Through a series of discussions about foundational medical humanities literature and workshops producing concrete interventions for medical training, CHIME promotes a unique and necessary interdisciplinary perspective. Ultimately CHIME asks, "How should we re-imagine medical education to be a just and humanistic practice?"
