Share Your Expertise with the Next Generation of Healthcare Providers

Community faculty are one of the University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine’s most important assets. They volunteer to share their knowledge, skills, and abilities with our students in a wide variety of practice environments. The Office for Community Faculty (OCF) builds relationships between community faculty and the University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine (UNR Med) to promote the advancement of medical education.

We thank you for your commitment to our students and are excited to invite the members of the Washoe County Medical Society to either continue or participate with us in our communications, upcoming events, workshops, and CME opportunities.

We have included a few ways you can get involved to the right. If you are not already an active UNR Med community faculty member, we need you.
