[Cusom27] Biochemistry Board Review Sessions in Block 7

[Shahir Rizk]

Dear Class of 2027,

We are excited for our visit to CUSOM this spring! In the next few weeks,
we will provide you with some information on the sessions and on additional
online material and resources that you will have access to after our visit.
In the meantime, please don't hesitate to reach out to us with any
questions.

Looking forward to meeting all of you!

Best,
Dr. Rizk
