Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, medical students were unable to travel in 2020 as they normally would have to complete medical electives across the country or internationally. With input from the AMA Committee on Student Affairs, it was decided that the fairest way to distribute this year’s grants was by random draw of entries received from medical student members (classes of 2021 and 2022).
