Each spring, parents and family members of current Duke medical students come together for the day to experience first-hand what it's like to be a Duke medical student. Sessions may include: team-based-learning (TBL) to tackle a case study, practicing skills in the SEAL Lab (Surgical Education and Activities Lab), hearing about the third-year immersive research experince, and all that comes with the “Road to Residency. Attendees will meet the Advisory Deans, hear about the admissions process, and an overview of the medical school curriculum is provided.
