DIG has learned that passing Step 1 is now a requirement for UTMB medical students to participate in the UTMB Honors Research Program. Since 2001, more than 30 UTMB medical students have successfully completed this program, with many matching into dermatology residency programs. While most students interested in dermatology research entered this program in their MS3 year, a few MS1s participated and completed the program in their MS2 year.
The University of Texas Medical Branch Dermatology Interest Group (UTMB DIG) is a resource for medical students interested in Dermatology as well as for dermatologists and residents.
