We’re excited to announce the 2026 BAMA Residency Information Seminar! It’s happening on Zoom on June 6th, 2026, from 6-8 PM (Pacific Standard Time).

This seminar is especially for Burmese medical graduates who are thinking about moving to the United States to continue their medical careers.

We’ll have some recently matched Burmese physicians share their inspiring stories about the challenges they faced. They’ll be discussing everything from ECFMG registration and primary source verification to the ERAS application, CV writing, personal statements, research applications, observer/externship opportunities, program selection, and the ups and downs of the application process. This year, we’re thrilled to have Dr. Yan Naung Htay, who’s graduating from the cardiology fellowship at Northeast Ohio Medical University, as our special guest speaker. He’ll be sharing insights on “Beyond Residency” to help inspire the next generation of physicians to achieve their goals.

If you’re interested, please join the Zoom meeting using the link below. If you know someone who might be interested in these topics, please spread the word!
