An important task for me as MMS president-elect is to appoint members to the Society’s committees. Our committees promote member interests and MMS policy positions to the public, business, legislature and state agencies.
Because the perspectives, ideas, and input of medical students are vital to committee success, I am hopeful that many of you will be willing to serve and actively engage. We will be looking for diversity of backgrounds, experiences, and skillsets. Please
review the list of list of MMS committees. If you are interested in serving on a committee, please complete an
application form and return it to Society headquarters together with a copy of your CV and a statement of interest by Tuesday, February 20, 2024.
To encourage appropriate representation of the Medical Student Section (MSS), all medical student committee appointments will be made in conjunction with input from MMS Medical Student Section leadership. Up to two medical students will be appointed per
committee.
In order to facilitate your participation, the Society will reimburse mileage, tolls and parking costs that may be incurred if you travel to and from in-person committee meetings, and committee meetings can also be attended virtually.
Your involvement in Society programs, activities, and committees will help shape the future of medicine. I look forward to working with you.
Hugh Taylor, MD
President-Elect, Massachusetts Medical Society
