We are excited to announce that we will be transitioning to in-person Journal Clubs!

Zoom will still be available, but please note that food (pizza?? sushi?!? taking suggestions!) will be provided to in-person attendees only.

This month the topic is General Surgery! We will discuss a few research-pertinent topics and then dive into the article.

Please note that we are still looking for a student presenter. No prior experience required, and I’m here to guide you along the way ☺

Calling all International Students considering an overseas elective in Phase 2!

*This event will be held on ZOOM.

Have your travel cravings kicked in yet? Are you looking to explore international options for Phase 2? Are you looking to set yourself up for returning to Canada or the US (Non-Oschner soz)?

Then come along to International Electives Night!

We will be covering Canadian and Ocshner Electives and an overview of the AFMC portal, which will be all too familiar with time.

Please note that international and domestic students have different options for international electives, and that this event is tailored to the international students. Things are looking a little different this year and some travel restrictions may still be in place for 2021 so we will keep you updated as things progress as well.

UQMind is excited to present our first ever PAINT & SIP event! 🎨🥂🥰

Join us for a delightful evening of painting to a calming Bob Ross tutorial and sipping champagne/wine/whatever drink you fancy.

After the year we’ve had so far, UQMind thinks that we all deserve an enjoyable night out with friends. Painting has also been shown to promote stress relief, enhance memory and foster creative and emotional growth.

Please BYO drinks to this event and wear clothes that can get dirty.

All painting materials will be provided, including the canvas for your artwork which is yours to take home!

We’ll also have cups for your drinks 🍾

Tickets will be sold on a first come, first served basis as there are a limited number available due to social distancing requirements.

More details to come! ❤️
