PsychSIGN 

PsychSIGN is a national network of medical students interested in psychiatry, from those with a rough interest in the brain and mind to those already in the application and match process. They connect students across the country to their peers, to psychiatry residents, and to practicing psychiatrists from a broad range of subspecialties. They  provide mentoring opportunities, resources for your health and career, and ideas for expanding your interest group. Membership is free!
