David R. Cox Scholarship for Rare Compassion

David R. Cox Scholarship for Rare Compassion

The David R. Cox Scholarship for Rare Compassion is a Global Genes program that provides unique opportunities for medical students to connect to the rare community. The program pairs medical students with rare patients and families who may live or work in relatively close proximity. Interactions with patients provide students with an understanding of, and compassion for, the daily challenges faced by those living with a rare disease. The impact of this experience can often prompt students to pursue a rare disease focus in their medical career endeavors. Will you help emerging medical professionals connect to the rare community? Please sign up now to be matched with a medical student, and be part of this important program!
