Saint Louis University Residents’ Association identifies ideas and concerns as they are related to the welfare of Saint Louis University house staff.
We facilitate changes based upon the significant concerns of our residents and fellows. SLURA is committed to enhancing the educational environment for graduate medical education at Saint Louis University, as well as improving work conditions through a team-based, problem-solving approach. SLURA representatives are a liaison to SLU’s Graduate Medical Education Committee.
SLURA sponsors social events and guest lectures on topics of interest ranging from "How to Find a Job" to "Basics of Investing."
