We are looking to support CaRMS applicants who identify as Muslim women and are applying to a surgical subspecialty. As we are a growing collective, we are also happy to support any medical student in Canada applying for the R1 iteration who identifies as Black, Indigenous, racialized and/or 2SLGBTQIA+.

The work rests on representation, guidance and empowerment, so that aspiring women surgeons can see a path and have someone walking it with them.
