The AAMC (Association of American Medical Colleges) has launched its second AspiringDocs.org Video Contest, this time asking students — "What motivates you to increase diversity in medicine?" In an increasingly diverse world, it is necessary to have a physician workforce that can identify with the cultural needs of different patients. The online video contest gives college students an opportunity to explain how they plan to play a role in meeting this demand, and the chance to receive assistance to help make their dreams of becoming a doctor come true. The video contest is a feature of the AAMC's AspiringDocs.org campaign, a Web site and outreach effort to increase diversity in medicine. Launched in 2006, the AspiringDocs.org Web site provides college students with the information, tools, and support they need to decide if a career in medicine is right for them. It also helps students understand and navigate the medical school application and admission process, prepare for the MCAT, and apply for financial aid.
