2016 — Women in Medicine — UNE Medical Students Association

The purpose of this event is to celebrate women in Medicine as well as to highlight the different options available to all individuals wishing to pursue medicine and the different paths that can be taken to get there.

The event is open not only to medical students from the University of New England but all members of the community. We’ve previously had four female speakers from various fields and at different stages of their career. In between speeches, those attending the event have the opportunity to socialise with the speakers enabling them to ask any questions they may have.

2016 saw 80 people attend our inaugural event with great feedback and enthusiasm for the future, we are excited to watch this event grow within our own medical student cohort and wider medical community.
