There is a MASSIVE need for blood donors— standard blood donors will receive 5 membership points while power red donors will get 6 and volunteers will get 4 points.

Thank you to everyone who attended our UCD School of Medicine Public Health Sciences workshop on April 5th, led by our former President (2022-23) and alum, Prishha Thiagarajan. Prishha founded the Quills of Solidarity Initiative in 2020 at the onset of the pandemic to address the isolation faced by incarcerated individuals, and she subsequently spearheaded a series of letter-writing events at Pre-Med AMSA to support incarcerated populations. This workshop continued that mission—and expanded it. Students explored the realities of incarceration as a public health crisis, engaged in critical conversations about health disparities, and reflected on how they, as future healthcare workers, can champion equity and justice in medicine. Together, we wrote 77 letters of support and sent them to the Pelican Bay State Prison.

Thank you again to everyone who showed up! The future of medicine is more informed, compassionate, and justice-driven because of YOU. 🩺✨

Welcome to Pre-Med AMSA at UC Davis!

Mission Statement ​Pre-Med AMSA at UC Davis was founded in 1985 and has since grown in size. The mission of Pre-Med AMSA is to prepare Pre-Med students to become knowledgeable and well rounded medical school candidates through scholarship, networking, philanthropy and community partnership. Welcome to Pre-Med AMSA! The American Medical Student Association (AMSA), with a half-century history of medical student activism, is the oldest and largest independent association of physicians-in-training in the United States. Today, AMSA is a student-governed, national organization committed to representing the concerns of physicians-in-training. AMSA members are medical students, premedical students, interns, residents and practicing physicians. Founded in 1950, AMSA continues its commitment to improving medical training and the nation’s health. How is AMSA different from other organizations? When you join AMSA, you become part of a vital force of future physicians who believe that patients and health professionals are partners in the management of health care and that access to high-quality health care is a right and not a privilege. At AMSA, activism is a way of life. Student idealism is transformed into meaningful public service, innovation and institutional change. What Are We All About? Medical school will likely be the most difficult life challenge you have faced. From the rigorous studying to the pressure of fulfilling your roles as student, family member and friend, you need all the help you can get to succeed. AMSA is about more than just improving medical student lives. We live in the richest country in the world, yet many have no health insurance. Research shows that health disparities are rampant in America. AMSA’s role in these issues is extremely important, because our strength is giving power to medical students to take action and create change about issues that they care about. It’s the presence of visionary medical students and our energy that makes AMSA such a powerful organization.
