The University of Texas at El Paso and Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso unveiled MedFuture, a joint initiative that will create a pathway for highly qualified students in our Borderplex to be admitted to college and medical school in their hometown of El Paso right out of high school.
“UTEP has a very strong pre-med program,” said Heather Wilson, UTEP President. “It makes sense for UTEP and TTUHSC El Paso to work together to help El Paso retain the best and brightest future physicians in the region.”
The MedFuture initiative is the first of its kind in West Texas, with collaboration from two independent universities on one path to a medical education. Its groundbreaking programming will not only cultivate a deeper interest and understanding of the field but has the potential to change the life trajectories of local students and their families as they embark on a path to high-income earning careers in medicine. Four of the five students in MedFuture’s inaugural cohort are first-generation college students.
“We’re pleased to partner with UTEP to provide an educational pathway for talented local students who dream of attending medical school and serving patients in their hometown,” said Richard Lange, M.D., M.B.A., president of TTUHSC El Paso and dean of the Foster School of Medicine. “MedFuture will address the physician shortage in the region while meeting the health care challenges faced by our residents.”
The MedFuture partnership recognizes highly qualified seniors in high school who have expressed an interest in science and medicine — and a strong commitment to serve the region upon graduating.
While completing their baccalaureate degrees at UTEP, MedFuture students receive foundational pre-med support and enroll in the UTEP PREP summer program to set a solid foundation for their college career. Program opportunities include pre-health advising and mentorship, paid Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) preparation programs, paid summer research experiences and health care internships at TTUHSC El Paso’s Foster School of Medicine.
“Our goal is to address our region’s severe physician shortage by educating the next generation of medical professionals, and promoting a medical workforce that reflects our community,” said Gail Arnold, Ph.D., assistant dean of the College of Science and director of the Medical Professions Institute at UTEP.
A joint committee of UTEP and TTUHSC El Paso’s faculty and staff selected the inaugural cohort of students for admission. They are:
Piñon was born with a heart defect and has undergone multiple surgeries – including open-heart surgery. The experience gave her an understanding about her heart and how it worked. Her passion for practicing medicine locally grew after learning of TTUHSC El Paso’s mission to keep students in the region after graduation.
“As a patient, I have to fly out to Houston for any treatment,” Piñon said. “Not only is El Paso underserved, but it’s underrepresented. Being part of this program means I can continue my education here and stay involved in our community.”
“We’re excited to provide mentorship and professional development opportunities, while exposing them to the field of medicine through scribing and shadowing internships,” said Cynthia Perry, Ph.D., Associate Academic Dean for Admissions at the Foster School of Medicine. “MedFuture will help us grow our own future physicians and provide the resources to potentially change their life trajectories.”

Learn Rewirement and Work-Life Integration From the C-Suite Couple Who’s Done It for 45 Years
CHICAGO, May 30, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
Ilene Gordon and Bram Bluestein, the C-suite couple that has been practicing rewirement and work-life integration for 45 years, has released the hardcover edition of Doubling Down: The Secret Sauce for Dual-Career Families. For anyone who desires to excel in a big career, sustain a loving relationship, and raise children who grow up to be happy and healthy adults, this is the playbook that reveals the new elixir to making it all work in 2023 and beyond.
“The ability to model all that an enriching, fulfilling life can be for your children while also managing rigorous work schedules as high-level executives is nothing short of heroic,” said Elliott Wislar, CEO of Clearbrook. “Bram and Ilene are modern role models for us all, in fact, epitomizing a grand American dream. I’m inspired by the many examples in their book but also, fueled to be more self-aware and intentional as a leader and parent. This is quite a unique guide.”
Examples in Doubling Down are poignant and timely, with loads of research underscoring their advice. Both authors shaped rigorous careers and crisscrossed the world in their roles while “doubling down” on their family needs in sometimes creative ways. They learned to be supportive partners, agree on compromises, and evolve in their professional identities while keeping family first.
Ilene Gordon served as CEO of Ingredion, a Fortune 500 company, and was named five times to Fortune’s “50 Most Powerful Women in Business” U.S. list, and twice to Fortune’s international list. Bram Bluestein held senior leadership positions at several of the most respected consulting firms in the world, including Boston Consulting Group, Kearney, and Booz Allen Hamilton. Since the release of their first edition of Doubling Down, Ilene and Bram have brought their message to Chicago Finance Exchange, The Wharton Club, MIT Sloan, Columbia Business School, Loyola University’s Baumhart Center for Social Enterprise & Responsibility, Stanford Law School, and many others.
