Medsin

About Medsin:

Medsin (formerly the Medical Students’ International Network) is a grassroots, student led organisation. Its vision is “A world where health is a universally realised human right”. Its activities aim to “promote health as well as to act upon and educate students about health inequalities in our local and global communities.” Formed in 1997, the organisation has branches over 30 Universities in the UK. Medsin is the UK member of the International Federation of Medical Students’ Associations. Medsin-UK is a registered charity tasked with facilitating the activities of Medsin in the UK. It has an elected board consisting of students active within Medsin. A by-law in its constitution prevents it from accepting donations from pharmaceutical companies. Medsin branches, campaigns and projects are autonomous.

Medsin HYMS:

Medsin-HYMS launched in 2005-06, and successfully ran several projects and campaigns. Recently Medsin at HYMS has been less active, but if you have ideas, enthusiasm and/or passion for a cause, get in touch with the committee!
