Zucker School of Medicine Student Wins National Medical-Legal Mock Trial Competition

Students from the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell served as expert medical witnesses during the seventh National Medical-Legal Trial Competition on November 8-10, 2024. The event, hosted annually by the Maurice A. Deane School of Law at Hofstra University and the Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell, is the only trial competition in the country where a medical school and a law school collaborate to simulate real-life expert testimony by doctors. This year, 16 law schools from across the country competed with 11 medical students as medical expert witnesses, and Chicago-Kent School of Law, aided by Zucker School of Medicine fourth-year student Brandon Santhumayor, captured first place.
