Message from the Governor
Minnesota 바카라 사리트 friends,
Tis the season… for advocacy. Our legislators are back to work, and we are back to working with them to make sure our patients and our voices are being heard. This February we took an engaged group of medical students, residents and internal medicine physicians to the capital to meet with legislators and to learn more about our legislative priorities this year. Our Health Policy committee continues to lead our chapter in this work, and I want to share my sincere gratitude for their tireless advocacy. Our chapter also co-sponsored three resolutions at the national 바카라 사리트 meeting in April and your comments were very helpful.
Over 130 Minnesotans gathered in Boston to learn, collaborate, and connect with our 바카라 사리트 colleagues from across the world. If you have not been to a national meeting it is hard to describe the feeling of walking into the opening ceremony or attending convocation with thousands of internal medicine doctors who are committed to lifelong learning and advocacy. Throughout the meeting you catch glimpses of the incredibly diverse world of research and clinical medicine that defines our profession and elevates the care we provide to our communities. Our Minnesota chapter members continue to contribute valuable content to this meeting. If you are interested in being considered as a presenter at the national 바카라 사리트 meeting in 2025 or 2026, please contact me at Minnesota.acp@gmail.com
I hope you will continue your engagement with other MN colleagues by attending I.M. on Tap, participating in our new educational webinars, attending the Nov. 1st Minnesota I.M:2024, attending upcoming Chapter Chat with the Governor sessions to be scheduled at coffee/tea houses throughout the state, or by considering applying for Fellowship in 바카라 사리트. Your voice makes our chapter stronger, and I truly believe makes our communities better.
With gratitude,
Tseganesh Selameab, MD, F바카라 사리트, Minnesota - 바카라 사리트 Governor
