USMLE?NYPC academy continues academic activities

We are still providing academic support for new physicians already enrolled at our academy: we are now getting students from Cuban latinoamerican University, which harbors students from the USA and latinoamerican countries, as well as from African countries. We have 15 students being instructed by former KAPLAN instructors who are devoting valuable time to cooperate to our cause. We have appointed Dr Carlos Fuentes, a young and talented Venezuelan MD who graduated from Cuba and works part time at KAPLAN, as our new academy coordinator. We are taking over the role of academy director since our friend Radhames Rojas is unable to fulfill his role as director , due to his busy schedule at Jacobi Hospital ( he is a second year resident of Medicine, There).
By next year we have a commitment to help those students and instructors who may be ready to start residency training. Our research assistant program at Lincoln hospital had already accepted some MD's already graduated in Cuba and who has the opportunity to rotate into the different clinical services.
We repesent the future and will fight for the right of every doctor in need to study for USMLE and to enter into accredited residency training programs.
