Mission
Even with efforts to increase the number of minority ethnic groups in science and medicine, the proportion of black men pursuing and obtaining degrees in these fields has reached a historic low. In 1986, 57% of black medical school graduates were men — but by 2015 that number had dropped to just 35%, even as the total number of black graduates in all fields had increased.1 By providing opportunities for networking, community-building, and mentorship, Black Men in Medicine at UCSF strives to dismantle the barriers that have perpetuated the dearth of black men in the field and act as a resource for those currently pursuing careers in medicine to find success.

In addition, students will be partnered with UCSF affiliated faculty and students who will provide longitudinal mentorship in their pursuit of higher education. Cardiac Camp will be funded by several Departments and Organizations at UCSF, such that all resources, lectures, and hands-on experiences are entirely free to students.

Mission
Access to dermatology is limited in many minority communities, resulting in numerous racial and socioeconomic health disparities.

Research shows that Black and Latinx communities are more likely to be diagnosed with melanoma at later stages, less likely to receive systemic treatment for psoriasis, and more likely to have active atopic dermatitis when compared to white populations.

This organization aims to teach young people from underserved areas how to take care of and protect their skin. We hope that by providing these educational resources we can work to improve skin health and reduce disparities in dermatology.
