📢GEMSoc Speaker Event: Dr Boeck, F1 at JPH and former GEM student 📢

 

GEMSoc excited to welcome Dr Boeck for an evening of insights, practical advice, and discussion tailored to medical students (GEM or undergrads). This is a great opportunity to explore key aspects of medical school, career planning, and personal growth, all in a relaxed and approachable setting.

The event will begin with a short five-minute introduction, followed by three themed talks from Dr Boeck:

  • Medical School and the Foundation Years – tips on how to navigate the early years, common challenges, and what really matters
  • Ambition and Career Choices – exploring different paths, handling expectations, and thinking about success in medicine
  • Staying Motivated During Training – strategies to maintain balance, resilience, and perspective

Dr Boeck will also weave in student-suggested topics, including reflections on unexpected lessons and experiences, making the session both practical and engaging.

The talk will conclude with a few final remarks and a Q&A session, giving members the chance to ask questions, seek advice, and discuss ideas.

This event is also an excellent opportunity to meet the GEMSoc committee, learn more about what the society offers, and find out how to get involved. Whether you’re just starting medical school or preparing for F1, this session is designed to provide guidance, inspiration, and a supportive space for discussion.

 

🩺 Welcome to all, not just graduate medical students. ✨
