Medicine-Pediatrics Interest Group

MPIG is committed to giving students access to information about the Med-Peds residency and putting them in touch with physicians and residents in this field. As more pediatric patients with congenital and chronic conditions are surviving long into adulthood, there is an increased demand for physicians who can both treat these patients in their childhood and provide them with the unique care they need many years later.

MPIG provides students with the opportunity to learn more about career options in this transitional care field and allows them to make connections with current residents and physicians at UCLA.
