Duration: This program is open for a period of 4 to 8 weeks.
Academic Focus: Beyond clinical work, this program encourages participation in research, including writing case reports, collecting data for studies, and attending clinical teaching sessions.
Clinical Exposure: Participants are exposed to resource-limited healthcare systems and tropical infectious diseases rarely seen in other parts of the world
