The Asian Medical Students' Association (AsMSA), in partnership with AMSA (Australian Medical Students' Association) is proud to present two conference opportunities for Australian Medical Students.

The theme for the 31st AMSC is “Geriatrics: Holistic Approaches for Palliative Care”. A topic that is generally
overlooked by many medical schools and students. The AMSC will explore the issues surrounding the topic, via
lectures, guest speakers and workshops in an effort to set new trends in the region and highlighting the
significance that geriatric health plays on the quality of life.

Despite the dates in the attached PDF, the application closing date is the 21st March.

2. The Silhouette 2010 Global Medical Students' Convention

This unique event will be held from the 23rd to 25th May in Indore, India. This flagship annual convention of the IMSA is a purely student led academic event and will focus on burning health issues including HIV/AIDS and Child Trafficking in India and a lot more. The event promises to be one of gargantuan proportions, with over 500 medical students and interns who represent one of the most motivated of India's next generation.

NRLDS - Applications Close this FRIDAY 12th March!!

Monday, 08 March 2010 06:49

Are you a leader? Or are you interested in improving your leadership skills? Well the Australian Medical Students' Association in conjunction with the National Rural Health Students' Network (NRHSN) are teaming up to bring to you the inaugural National Rural Leadership Development Seminar! This Seminar will be held in Wollongong over 8-10 April, and will see over 100 handpicked medical, allied health and nursing students from across the country come together to gain professional development in leadership skills, specific to rural and remote practice. The NRLDS is designed to be an interactive "hands-on" experience for delegates where they will be able to gain additional skills to further them as professionals.

This event will include keynote speakers, workshops and open floor sessions that will allow delegates to discuss particular issues current within rural, remote and Indigenous health in Australia. This event will also see the first student-run rural health roundtable, where delegates as well as invited professionals in the field of rural health can come together to address rural health workforce issues.

For further information about this event, please visit www.amsa.org.au and follow the links through the Events menu.

Hurry, applications close Friday 12th March!
Cheers,
The NRLDS Committee
