Announcing additional MCS Premedical and Prehealth Advisor for Spring 2024 We are delighted to introduce Chris Gilbert, our new part-time MCS Premedical and Health Careers advisor. He will be offering 30-minute premed/prehealth advising appointments from February to June of this year. You can find Chris' MCS staff bio here<https://careerservices.fas.harvard.edu/staff/#chris-gilbert>, and we are also including it below for your convenience. Chris has a long record of advising and supporting students and alumni at Harvard College, and we are very fortunate that he is already an experienced premed and prehealth advisor. He will support the MCS Prehealth advising team this coming semester alongside his other roles at the College. Please join us in extending a warm welcome to Chris! Chris joined the Harvard community 20 years ago for graduate training in history after receiving his B.A. with majors in History, Classical Civilizations, and Philosophy from Loyola University Chicago. At Harvard he developed a passion for advising students serving as the Resident Dean of Dudley House as well as an Interim Dean at both Winthrop and the Dudley Community. Chris completed pre-med requirements after developing an interest in medicine and is working on two forthcoming articles (on exercise physiology and the predictive value of fracture patterns in identifying non accidental trauma in pediatric patients). He continues to serve as a Resident Tutor along with his two rescue cats, T-Bone and Mr. Socks. He is an avid cyclist, backpacker (currently section hiking the Long Trail), vegan baker, and coffee roaster.
