Electives


Salaam all.

I am in my last year of residency, and am in the process of looking for both a one-month international elective and a posting for next year (thinking of msf, imc, etc.)

Does anyone out there have any advice of a good resident elective that is not bench-research oriented?

Thanks for the suggestion. I looked into the Johnson and Johnson award, but it seems the deadline passed in March. (Too bad I don't get to join your team in Russia!)

Where all have you been to?

If you are seriously looking into it, I have contacts in some places where I have worked/been previously invited to. These include Pakistan, Japan, Central Africa, and maybe some other countries.

Also look into Yale-Johnson and Johnson international health award. I know they have one for the residents. I have that award (faculty award) to go to Russia next year, if you want to apply for it and join the team.
