Students
The Student Committee aims to strengthen the ties between the WDMS and UMass Medical School by increasing medical student representation in the WDMS. We encourage collaboration, advocacy, and enduring participation in the community, and plan events to increase student engagement and community collaboration. This committee acts as liaison to the medical school and brings medical student concerns to the attention of the WDMS. In addition, the Student Committee assists the WDMS in offering educational and experience-based opportunities to medical students.
“Participating in organized medicine is a professional responsibility” —Dr. Anne Larkin
