We are so so excited to have worked with DWAMSS on this- they have created such a fantastic virtual shadowing resource, really important at the moment when access to work experience is extremely limited!
So excited to see @CaitlynLTaylor's winning essay in print🤩
Caitlyn discovered what might have helped @AddisonsUK patients along their #DiagnosticOdyssey and crafted a poignant essay detailing what she learned as a result of her pairing.

@StephenHearns1 Thank you, the talk was very interesting! Will definitely be considering how I can apply the skills discussed to medical school + beyond.
Absolutely delighted to have been selected as a runner up! 🎉Thanks to @M4RareDiseases @findacure_fdn for organising and all of the patient groups involved in the pairing scheme. Special thanks to @AddisonsUK for the wonderful insights that inspired my entry. 🦓
