The Leaders Achieving Notable Education, LANE, Premedical Society is sponsored by the Michigan State University College of Human Medicine, CHM, through the Center of Excellence in Minority Medical Education and Health (COE). The Society is an enrichment program that recognizes students' early academic achievement and dedication to careers in medicine.

It is also hoped that lasting relationships with CHM students, faculty and alumni will be fostered through LANE.
