Welcome to the
home page of the Emergency Medicine Interest Group at The University
Of Sydney Faculty of Medicine Western Clinical School, Westmead.
The Emergency
Medicine Interest Group (EMIG) was formed in early 2008. We are a
student run group that aims to allow students to learn about
emergency medicine.
We aim to organize
events and activities to further student education both in clinical
skills and academically. Meetings are held every two months.
Attending the EMIG
meetings will also put you in contact with emergency medicine
physicians and toxicologists that work right here at our clinical
school! Come and meet people!
Some of the
activities planned include suturing workshops, Introduction to
Emergency Medicine, Administration of Local Anaesthetics, student
led 'Not So Grand Rounds' and more.
You don't need to
be a member to participate, nor is attendance limited to those
planning a career in Emergency Medicine. All are welcome and invited to attend.
