Freddy T. Nguyen, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

It has been a pleasure to continue to serve as your President this past year. Since my last column, APSA continues to expand and grow. Our partnerships have now spread to include the National Student Research Forum and the National Youth Leadership Forum, detailed below. These new collaborations are part of our outreach goals to further spread information about the physician-scientist career. We have also continued to strengthen our relationships with our other partner organizations including the American Society for Clinical Investigation, the Student Doctor Network, and the Swiss MD-PhD Association to achieve our mission and goals. In November of 2006, the first APSA-sponsored regional meeting was held in Houston, TX through the Texas Physician-Scientist Symposium. Also in November, we continued to support our collaboration with the American Medical Association-Medical Student Section through a career development session at the Interim Meeting in Las Vegas, NV.
