Hi #PreMedTwitter, me again! With virtual interviews this year, I’m sure you’re feeling nervous about not getting to meet as many current med students, so I’ve come here to help https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤝" title="Handschlag" aria-label="Emoji: Handschlag">

Below is a thread of current @IowaMed students on Twitter, starting with those applying this fall!
We’re excited to meet you as best we can and want to help you through this odd season.

And for the rest of #MedTwitter, check out my classmates who I’m proud will be your colleagues in the very near future!
