American Medical Student Association (AMSA)

The American Medical Student Association is the largest independent medical student organization in the country and the largest student group at Mount Sinai. AMSA's main focus currently centers around three key areas: increasing diversity in medicine, promoting medical student well-being, and working towards providing health care for everyone. AMSA leads initiatives both locally and nationally in medical education, public health, and student and patient activism in Washington, as well as at the local level. At our chapter, we have coordinated and participated in activities such as: orientation events (move-in party, book sale/anatomy coat sale, the big sib/little sib raffle/party), a very well-attended residency fair, National Primary Care Week activities, the AMSA National Convention, and National Organ and Tissue Awareness Week activities - just to name a few.
