Serving on the RPC (PHiT council) totally launched my volunteering journey. It levels up your understanding of the scope of the specialty, and gets you started on networking with your peers who go on to be future leaders of the field. I’m thankful for being a PHiT alumnus
Our PHiT Council Board has had over 180 in-training leaders participate over the last 30+ years, and this year's Board caught up with some past members to learn about where they were and where they are now. Learn about Dr. Annaswamy's experience here: https://t.co/OkE1FK0585
