Topical: The Dermatology Podcast

Oceanographer, poet, doctor - all these were aspirations of Dr. Oyetewa Oyerinde, and she has achieved many of these and more. We talk about her path to dermatology and her interests in diversity, equity and inclusion. We delve deep into how to combat micro-aggressions, minimize implicit bias and how to take action toward being upstanders in medicine.

What will online residency interviews be like? We answer some frequently asked questions:

How to answer the question "tell me about yourself"? (Hint: it's like an elevator pitch)

What to do during the virtual resident dinner? (Should you eat something exotic?)

Is there such a thing as a perfect answer? (Hint: be prepared but not too rehearsed...maybe Goldilocks had it right)

What question to ask when asked if you have questions? (Try saying that three times fast)
