PGSS Student Association of the Year Award听

The Post Graduate Student Association of the Year Award听recognizes a student association that听has made outstanding contributions throughout the year, has shown itself to be constantly active, continually self-improving, and persistently serving the needs of students within PGSS, the McGill community at large, and Montreal.听 The FMGSS received this award in recognition of the substantial contributions it has made to its student body. Although singular in its name, the FMGSS represents over 20 graduate听departments in medicine听(including cardiology,听oncology and, emergency medicine)听who do not have their own student council. 鈥淥ur work serves to protect the rights of our students by promoting their personal and professional growth, and providing them听with the necessary academic and social support needed to succeed in their research听endeavours听and beyond,鈥� explains Sophia Siedlikowski, FMGSS representative to PGSS. Continues Thomas Bertrand, Vice President of FMGSS Internal Affairs 鈥淥ur most significant achievements this year were successful workshops for funding applications at the masters and doctoral levels, the creation of a dedicated textbook reserve at the Jewish General Hospital, extensive collaboration with the听听(MASH), and contributions to the emerging graduate student position within the Faculty of Medicine council.鈥� This听year, the FMGSS also听created a VP Community Service position, solely dedicated to further building community partnerships.

Best Academic Event Award

The Best Academic Event Award听recognizes听an outstanding听academic event and program planning by the student association, which听encourages听students to engage and interact with a wider community,听demonstrates passion for the discipline, and takes initiative听to听create new opportunities.

The FMGSS was recognized with this award in advance of their听. The event will include 30听student听oral presentations, a keynote presentation from a leading international speaker, and a panel presentation to discuss a wide range of career options. New this year, FMGSS partnered with the McGill Journal of Medicine to peer-review all abstracts received, and publish the top 15 student abstracts in a special June 2018 conference proceedings issue. 鈥淭his is an unparalleled opportunity for a student-led research day, and gives students and research assistants an opportunity to build their publication list,鈥� notes Stephanie Long, Vice President of FMGSS Academic Affairs.听Kayte Andersen, Vice President of FMGSS Communication, said 鈥渢he conference symposium has听already received registration requests from students in other Faculty of Medicine departments, the Faculty of Dentistry and Faculty of Engineering, and the general public. The extra-departmental interest speaks to the important reach of this event throughout McGill, and the FMGSS looks forward to welcoming these external attendees to learn more about primary care through this symposium.鈥� To help with the costs of the symposium, successful grant applications were put forth to the PGSS and the Faculty of Medicine.

Congratulations to the FMGSS!
