American Medical Student Association

Take Action

When medical students come together in AMSA, we have power - the power to enhance our well-being, protect the integrity of our profession, and advance the health of our patients. Explore AMSA and how you can get involved and make a difference in medicine, in your community and in your own life.

• The Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement for Physicians-in-Training
  With current TPP provisions, millions of people around the world will not be able to access affordable medicines, receive the best treatment available, or be prevented through government initiatives from admirable goals such as becoming "smokefree" or curbing alcohol abuse. Sign AMSA's TPP petition today!

  AMSA is dedicated to allocating time, energy and resources toward focusing the activism of its membership within these areas.
