While Boston University gives undergraduate an unparallel education in premedical sciences, we believe shadowing physicians in an inseperable part of its members' premedical education.  Thankfully, Boston does not lack in opportunities in this area.  AED members have successfully shadowed neurosurgeons, ophthalmologists, and emergency physicians throughtout the school year and during summer break.  It should be noted that while shadowing does not give academic credit, it often opens doors to research opprotunities, leadership opportunities, and letters of recommendations.

To start shadowing we suggest that you search the following web sites for the residency director of your specialty of choice:
Boston Medical Center
Children's Hospital Boston
Beth Israel-Deaconess Medical Center
Dana Farber Cancer Institute
Massachusetts General Hospital
Boston Health Care for the Homeless
