With the growing number of pre-health students at the University of New Mexico and the surrounding universities, student pre-health organizations at the University of New Mexico wished to strengthen student resources and came together to establish the annual Health Professions Symposium to recruit, inspire, and educate their community’s future health professionals.
Since 2017, HPS has given high-school and undergraduate students access to a vast amount of information in the form of nearly 90 workshops, panels, and seminars, presented by local health professionals from a wide variety of fields dedicated to the betterment of their communities. In doing this, HPS has become one of the largest conferences in the southwest with a capacity of 1000 attendees and volunteers, all the while helping students make informed decisions on possible careers in healthcare.

The Learning Environment Office (LEO) was founded in 2019 under inaugural Director, Diana Martínez, and charged with understanding, preventing, reducing, and responding to incidents of learner mistreatment at the UNM School of Medicine. LEO’s scope currently includes the entire School of Medicine (SOM), including MD learners, residents, fellows, PhD and MS learners in Research Education programs, and all Health Professions learners in PA, PT, OT, MLS, EMS, Radiologic Science, and Dental Hygiene.
In an effort to promote transparency while preserving confidentiality, LEO is producing quarterly status reports that share aggregated data to enhance the overall understanding of learning environments as well as protect anonymity. The reports will remain aggregated until we have enough data to not be identifiable. These reports also contain data on exemplary teachers and mistreatment incidents as well as information about LEO's activities.
