I did not know of this program, which is run by the California medical
schools.  It might be of interest to some of you and so I thought the
information useful.

Those outside of California may not yet be aware of the new PRIME (Program
In Medical Education) 5-year programs at UC medical schools for those who
want to work with the medically underserved.  Each UC medical school has a
different focus (e.g. the oldest program at UC Irvine focuses on underserved
Latinos, the focus for UC Davis is the rural underserved) and the curriculum
for the additional year reflects this focus.  These programs are open to
residents of any state (i.e. without the preference for California residents
as found in most of the main UC programs) and PRIME students earn at least
one master's degree for the additional year of training (e.g. MPH or MBA or
other, depending on the program).
