The East Asian Medical Students’ Conference was an annual conference hosted by various cities around East Asia. At its inception, it aimed to inspire delegates to become active in the amelioration of global healthcare problems through networking with other medical students from the East Asian region. In the recent decades, it has expanded to involve delegates from all AMSA Members allowing the exchange of ideas, knowledge, and cultural understanding.
The EAMSC continues to inspire medical students to analyse global health issues more closely and to utilise the role of medical students in the promotion of public health. It challenges students to think beyond what is learnt at university through various academic, sociocultural, and community service activities which explore a nominated conference theme.
The Asian Medical Students’ Conference is the flagship conference of AMSA International that involves the participation of hundreds of medical students at summer yearly.
The objective of AMSC lies in creating a platform for a strong, global network of medical students, who as future medical practitioners, will explore and develop their academic knowledge, cultural appreciation, and interpersonal skills.
The AMSC comprises of three main aspects: academic, sociocultural, and community service programmes. This event allows medical students from AMSA Members to congregate, discuss and present their projects and research which were conducted based on the theme agreed upon for the conference that year. In addition, delegates can also experience different traditions and customs through the cultural events organised throughout course of the conference and network with future doctors across Asia, regardless of nationality, ethnicity, religion, or race.
