Ever wonder what internal medicine is really all about? IMIG (internal medicine interest group) offers an informal and collegial opportunity to learn about and discuss topics in the field of internal medicine. Our aim is to promote internal medicine as a career by encouraging strong relationships with internal medicine practitioners, academic leaders, and fellow student organizations. Explore the numerous subspecialties of internal medicine, listen to practitioners discuss interesting case studies, or learn how physicians face the dilemmas of practice while enjoying a relaxing guest-speaker lunch. Partake in our casual panel discussions as different internists reveal the pros and cons of internal medicine, debate current socioeconomic problems in medicine, or give tips on applying for a residency in internal medicine. In addition, we offer a chance to observe procedures in both the cardiac-catheterization lab or endoscopy unit. UMass division of IMIG is part of the regional and national level of American College of Physicians (ACP).
