Women in Medicine

Empowering women in medicine by building a community rooted in equity, representation, and mentorship

Our Mission

Harvard Undergraduate Women in Medicine is an empowering community dedicated to diversity, representation, and inclusion. We connect students with meaningful opportunities, resources, and support to critically engage with healthcare. Harvard WiM was founded in 2020, modeled after other Harvard Undergraduate organizations like Women in Computer Science and Women in Business. Currently, we have 350+ active members, a 1,500+ following, and an established network with the greater Harvard community, and we are continuing to grow rapidly.

Upcoming Event:

Getting Real About Research

Join Harvard Women in Medicine and other premed upperclassmen to talk about research! Getting started with research can be difficult and scary with little to no experience. To help, we will have upperclassmen spill the tea on how to find labs you’re interested in, send emails, prepare for potential interviews, and more! Stop by for as long as you would like for some quick conversations, questions, and fresh fruit & TJ snacks in Ticknor Lounge (Boylston Hall) on October 2nd (Thursday) from 7 to 9pm!

There is no need to RSVP – all you need to do is stop by! 

Please let us know if you have any questions or comments. See you there :)
