On October 4, 2020, NYAM hosted the 2020 Advocacy in Medicine Conference in partnership with the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. The conference was organized by a committee of medical students from institutions across New York City. This year’s theme was centered on the COVID-19 pandemic, and featured keynote speeches from Sanjeev K. Sriram, MD, MPH, and Joia Mukherjee MD, MPH, a panel of healthcare experts discussing advocacy and activism, topic-specific breakout groups, and a virtual networking session.
AIM 2020 would not be possible without the generous support of our financial sponsor, CUNY School of Medicine.
