To be announced The formal title of this group is the Maimonides Society, but really this is just a casual group for all Jewish medical students, with gatherings during the high holidays and throughout the year. The society sponsors an annual Jewish Medical Ethics lecture series in the fall. Watch for postings of times, dates, and topics. The Lambda Health Alliance was formed just over five years ago to address the needs and issues of lesbian, gay, and bisexual health professionals. Its members represent a range of professions and include public health workers, nurses, doctors, physician's associates, and hospital staff.
Membership is confidential.
Regular meetings are held once every month and serve as a time to discuss informally relevant issues and plan future social events and speakers. The group is one of the few places where members of the different health professions get a chance to meet and know one another. Moot is a small, student-run group in its second year of existence. Its members are interested in organizing outdoor trips, especially for orientation of first-year students. They are also interested in outdoor leadership training and in sponsoring hikes, canoe trips, bicycle trips, and other outdoor activities for the Medical School and New Haven community.
