Description
Dr. Mark Schuster has asked students in the entering class at the Kaiser Permanente Bernard J. Tyson School of Medicine to write a letter to themselves about their passions and goals that will be returned to them at graduation. After an extremely competitive, yet holistic admissions process to a program that has waived students' tuition with no strings attached, the admitted applicants “are the kinds of students who want to save the world,” Dr. Schuster boasts. He doesn't want the med school journey to burn out any of their spark. In addition to his role as Founding Dean and CEO of the Bernard J. Tyson School of Medicine, Dr. Schuster is recognized as an international leader in research on child, adolescent and family health and is also a member of the prestigious National Academy of Medicine. In this episode of Raise the Line, he speaks with Shiv Gaglani about his journey into pediatrics and leadership roles, how Kaiser Permanente has met the challenge of opening a medical school during a pandemic, and how COVID-19 has been an opportunity to teach about health disparities. Tune in for an inside glimpse of the school's unique admissions process and hear Dr. Schuster's advice on serving patients by viewing them as whole people in the full context of their lives.
