GOALS: They say Medicine is a place where there is a lifetime of learning while making a lasting impact. We, at the CIU local chapter value diversity and inclusion, empowering students with a plethora of opportunities designed to enrich their journey as future physicians, building invaluable skills and confidence along the way. Last semester, we organised a USMLE talk show, which not only helped students clear their doubts about this daunting exam but also helped them network with like-minded peers. Along with a talk show, we had a quiz, but this was not like any other. The teams had to diagnose cases based on clips from famous shows like “The Good Doctor,” “House,” to name a few. This allowed them to showcase their teamwork while also polishing their diagnostic skills. The CIU local chapter has an enthusiastic team that is always ready to volunteer and help out. We have volunteered at workshops and events organised by other local chapters too. Overall, the objective to provide and empower medical students through this tedious journey requires strong teamwork, and together, we unlock their full potential
