Subject: Prehealth Student $10,000 Essay Compeition - MD Connector and Mayo
Clinic - Due March 9, 2009
Dear Prehealth Student Advisor,
My name is Dan Chan and I am currently a second year medical student at Mayo
Medical School and also a co-founder of MD Connector, a news and networking
site for medical doctors, medical students, and premedical students. We
are excited to announce MD Connector's partnership with Mayo Clinic in
sponsoring a health education reform essay contest (details as attached).
This competition is open to all premedical, medical, and allied-health
students in the United States and Canada and is free to enter. Over $10,000
of cash and travel prizes are being awarded as well as the opportunity for
finalists to present at the 2009 Health Care Education Symposium in
Rochester, MN on April 26-28, 2009. As our submission deadline of March 9,
2009 is quickly approaching I would ask you to please forward this on to
your premedical students as soon as possible, as we believe that they will
find this opportunity very worthwhile. If you have colleagues in allied
health professions (nursing, MHA, MPH, etc) we would appreciate it if you
could also pass this message along. We look forward to the participation of
your students and wish them luck,
Sincerely,
Dan Chan
