Recording of presentation of
Forum Education committee's
pre-clerkship curriculum review

Previous Education Chair, Nicolette Codispodi (Stritch School of Medicine'23) led a pre-clerkship curriculum review of Chicago-area medical schools. These findings were summarized in this video presentation for the International Society for Sexual Medicine's (ISSM) World Meeting on Sexual Medicine on November 2021. This work would also not have been possible without our Board and Committee Members: Elsa Nico, Anna Petersen, Jen Romanello, Olivia Negris, Brenna Daugherty, and Caley Polkinghorn, as well as the Forum's advisor Rachel Rubin.
