Welcome to the Australian Medical Students'
Association (AMSA)! My name is Tish and I am
incredibly honoured to be your AMSA
president for 2023. We are the peak
representative body for the 23 medical
schools and over 17 000 medical students
across Australia. We strive to connect, inform
and represent all medical students as they
embark on a journey that will see them
become Australia's future health workforce.
AMSA is an incredible avenue to strengthen
your interests within medicine or pursue your
passions external to medicine, while meeting
like-minded medical students from all walks of
life from across the nation. The AMSA Embolus
is an effective way to stay updated on
everything that is happening with the AMSA
sphere. From advocacy, events, initiatives to
volunteer callouts and contributions to
publications, the Embolus can serve as your
one stop shop in 2023. Whether this is your
first day in medical school or you are well into
your medical student journey, there is a place
for you within AMSA!
Yours in Orange,
Tisshapaa (Tish) Sivagnanan
