Opioids Pharmacology and Street Medicine

 Opioids, Pharmacology, and Street Medicine

This initiative connects early-year medical students with Street Medicine programs, where they apply pharmacological knowledge, especially about opioids and antibiotics, in real clinical settings serving patients experiencing homelessness. The project assesses how these experiences affect students' understanding and application of basic sciences in community care.
