Samantha Licciardi - Secretary
Hello! To share a little bit about me, I am from Rhode Island and went to college in New York at Marist College where I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Sciences. I decided to join SIGN+Psych because mental health has always been a passion of mine and something I have always enjoyed learning about and helping others with. Over the past year or so at ICOM, I have been volunteering with Girls on the Run. This program is for 3rd to 5th graders and, as a volunteer, it is my responsibility to help these young girls improve upon their emotional, spiritual and physical health. It has been such an amazing experience that I have been able to learn and grow from as well. In addition to that, after our Neurosensory and Mental Health courses my interest for both the fields of neurology and psychology have grown. I am so excited to learn and experience more from experts in these fields through my role in SIGN+Psych and to help spread awareness and knowledge of these two areas of medicine with the ICOM community! |
The goal of SIGN+Psych for the 2020-2021 academic year is to grow the student base at ICOM interested in neurology and psychiatry. We are still a new school, and the clubs are even newer, so we want to attract people to our specialty by becoming a central hub for all things relating to the brain and mental health.
To further this, we are working to build networks in our community with doctors, clinics, and non-profits to provide opportunities for students to volunteer, research, and find mentors.
In creating this website, we hope that future years of club officers will be able to use this as a resource, too, to display everything we come up with.
