Jews in Medicine is an active group on the medical school campus that is open to all students from any level of religious or non-religious background. Our regular event is called "Med N' Munch" which occurs once a week at lunch on the UCI SOM campus. Rabbi Zevi, from the UCI Chabad, comes to campus to lead a discussion on either the Jewish perspective of medical ethics or basic Kabalah termed "Anatomy of the Soul." Med N' Munches are a great way to think about medicine in combination with Judaism and your own personal views. The lunch discussion allows for all views to be heard and considered; there is rarely a strict right or wrong answer. It is a nice time for reflexion with great food (provided by UCI Chabad) and friends. The Jews in Medicine students also attend Shabbat dinner at the UCI Chabad house on a regular basis.
