What is Representation in Rehab?

A new trainee-run organization with the purpose of creating a more inclusive and equitable future for Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R). This is done through 1) highlighting the voices of PM&R physicians who are underrepresented in medicine (URiM), 2) showcasing PM&R physicians who are doing incredible work to eliminate health disparities, and 3) creating an online community to increase accessibility to our specialty and its advocacy work.
