摘要：
The Medical Mentorship Program (MMP) at the University of Michigan was established to use research as a vehicle to mentor undergraduate students from backgrounds underrepresented in medicine (URiM). Eleven undergraduate students were paired with a medical student mentor and faculty principal investigator to lead a research project and participate in educational sessions. We found that 100% of undergraduates agreed that the program increased their interest in medicine. Additionally, 83.4% of medical students and 100% of faculty agreed they gained valuable mentorship experience. In conclusion, MMP provided URiM undergraduate students with valuable research, mentorship, networking, and medical exposure.
