My 16 yo son received an invitation to national academy of future physicians conference in dc. anyone know if this is legit?

I am not sure: Googling the national academy of future physicians, yielded a lot of self promotion articles. I would suggest looking at health careers programs that are connected to established universities and colleges. The best places to check would be the "sponsoring agencies" listed on their website. Perhaps another healthtap physician will have a more complete answer.

Thank you: I found the same thing. Most info coming from organization itself. Can't seem to find a lot of independent sources.

Existing programs: Many medical specialty associations and general medical organizations have mentorship and observership opportunities. Check with the AMA and NMA (Black physician association) and their student groups. Universities have summer programs aimed at high schoolers interested in medicine and research. Robert Wood Johnson Foundation is especially interested in underrepresented minorities.
