How pipeline programs boost diversity in medicine

<p>Designed to expose minority students to careers in medicine, the Medical Scholars Pipeline Program is now in its 12th year. <a href='https://www.northwell.edu/obstetrics-and-gynecology/news/the-latest/medical-scholars-pipeline-program-drives-diversity-in-healthcare'>Britney Nathan, MD</a>, was among the first students to participate, and this week begins her residency as an OB/GYN at Long Island Jewish Medical Center and North Shore University Hospital. She joins <a href='https://medicine.hofstra.edu/pipeline/contact.html'>Gina Granger</a>, assistant director of pipeline programs at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell, to discuss the value the program brings to students and the communities they go on to serve. </p>
