Minority Faculty Networking

Stanford Medicine’s Minority Faculty Networking group’s meetings offer an occasion for faculty to meet with colleagues in an informal environment and to consider the experiences of Stanford Medicine's minority faculty. All Stanford Medicine faculty are invited to register for an upcoming luncheon.

For more information, please contact us.

Each month OFDD hosts lunch with a small group of faculty to discuss research and clinical interests, faculty development concerns, and career advice across lines and ranks. This provides an opportunity for our faculty to get to know one another across different departments and specialties within Stanford Medicine in an intimate setting. All faculty are invited to attend. Please complete this survey to sign up for a lunch session.

Professional Development

All of our Stanford Medicine faculty are encouraged to participate in OFDD’s professional development workshops and leadership programs throughout the year.
