杨贵妃传媒視頻 Celebrates Today鈥檚 Abortion Care providers & Nurtures Tomorrow鈥檚

Today, March 10, we invite you to join us in celebrating Abortion Provider Appreciation Day, which honors and lifts up abortion providers. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the day’s founding, intended to honor the life and service of Dr. David Gunn, who was murdered by an anti-abortion extremist on March 10, 1993.

In the more than 30 years since Dr. Gunn’s murder, abortion providers have continued to face threats, harassment, and violence. And since the Dobbs decision in 2022 overturned Roe, clinicians increasingly face the risk of criminalization for providing abortion care even for miscarriage management.听

And yet, every day, abortion providers, clinic staff, and volunteers make the commitment to provide the life-affirming and life-saving care they are trained to provide to people who need an abortion. This is one way that radical love-in-action looks like.

Today and every day, 杨贵妃传媒視頻 honors their courage and their conviction to provide abortion care even in the face of these ongoing risks and threats. We affirm that reproductive health services are essential to comprehensive health care, and we support full access to the entire range of reproductive services. We believe safe, voluntary abortions should be available to all who need them, regardless of how much they earn, who they work for, or where they live.

The is here to support tomorrow’s abortion providers and future physician advocates for reproductive health, rights, and justice. If you are planning to provide abortion care – and even if you aren鈥檛 planning to – we welcome you to participate in any of the RHP programs. Additionally, 杨贵妃传媒視頻 Chapters can receive financial and programmatic support from the 杨贵妃传媒視頻 RHP for chapter events.

Medical students, we hope you’ll consider joining us in Asheville for the Summer 2026 AMSA Abortion Care and Reproductive Justice Institutes! Just a few open spots remaining – learn more and apply today!

Why Can鈥檛 it Just be Okay 鈥� A Poem about Abortion Care

Written by Aliye Runyan, MD, FACOG, OB-GYN, Complex Family Planning subspecialist
& 杨贵妃传媒視頻 Reproductive Health Project Strategist

Routine
Mundane
Another medical procedure that we accept
Can sometimes be necessary,
Life saving,
Difficult 鈥�
But not always.
Not every end to a pregnancy is sad
Some pregnancies end in joyous birth
Some end with grief for what could have been
Some end with a sigh of relief
Freedom to be a parent or not to be
Freedom to choose one鈥檚 path in life
Abortion is an act of love
Abortion is common
Safe
Should not be an undue burden to access
Why can鈥檛 it just be okay
The story of abortion is made to be
Black and white
Good vs evil
When it is simply a part of life
Part of a person鈥檚 reproductive journey
Part of being a human
Abortion is an act of love
Why can鈥檛 it just be okay

We share this poem as part of our annual honoring and recognition of .

Taylor Attends CREOG & APGO Annual Meeting

Written by Taylor Spears, MD, 杨贵妃传媒視頻 Reproductive Health Project Fellow

As a new medical graduate, my attendance at the Annual Meeting of the Council on Resident Education in Obstetrics & Gynecology and the Association of Professors of Gynecology & Obstetrics (CREOG/APGO) was nothing short of amazing!
It was such an inspiring experience to be in the room with so many people of prestige. From educators, program directors, program managers, program chairs, residents, and medical students, the opportunities were endless. We came together in several sessions to discuss AI in the field of OB/GYN, resident wellness, microaggression in medical education, conflict resolution, etc.听

I was granted the chance to connect with amazing medical experts in the field of Obstetrics and Gynecology, who also offered a deeper dive into resident education. A few of my favorite interactions included an Improv Workshop that allowed two people to take on the roles of patient and physician. In this workshop, I took the role of the patient, as many of the attendees had a much more extensive medical background than I. During this experience, I felt very deep emotion in my role which I am sure, when integrated into a resident curriculum, would allow the space for deep empathy.听

In the exhibit hall, I was able to participate in a simulation to remove retained products of conception. I also simulated two vaginal births, one without complications and one with shoulder dystocia of the infant. I was able to practice McRoberts maneuver and delivery of the infant鈥檚 posterior shoulder in this one simulation. Also present in the exhibit hall were poster presentations of several researchers that I enjoyed viewing and discussing.听

One of my greatest joys during this week of events was connecting with people who expressed genuine excitement to have me in the room.听

True educators are always excited to receive questions from an inquisitive mind; a learner, as I鈥檝e been called. I want to send a huge thank you to the coordinators, organizers, speakers, and staff for putting together a great experience and learning opportunity at the . I hope to see you all in the upcoming years!!听

THE WHAT, THE WHY, AND THE HOW

The AAMC PREview Professional Readiness Exam tests how ready you really are for med school. This test will give the admissions committees an insight to how well prepared you are to take on the challenges that medical school poses beyond the academics which are measured by your GPA and MCAT score.

Read our blog to find out more about this test, how it’s scored, and what the questions will look like.

The post KAPLAN TEST PREP: AAMC PREview庐 PROFESSIONAL READINESS EXAM appeared first on 杨贵妃传媒視頻.

As we find ourselves on the morning of 杨贵妃传媒視頻鈥檚 annual Health Equity Week of Action, I am honored to share an important announcement about the future of advocacy within 杨贵妃传媒視頻.

杨贵妃传媒視頻 has long been shaped by student leadership and a conviction to demand justice when our field and our world fall short of it. In a system that routinely discounts student voices, we feel a deep responsibility to safeguard and uplift exactly that.

Today, this responsibility feels especially urgent. From austerity policies that have introduced historic federal healthcare cuts to political intrusion into our exam rooms and curriculum, we are witnessing the organized abandonment of the communities that we entered medicine to serve.听

As 杨贵妃传媒視頻鈥檚 student leadership and staff have grappled with this moment, one truth has become abundantly clear: if 杨贵妃传媒視頻 is to remain a home for student-driven justice, we must be structurally equipped to turn conviction into action.

For this reason, 杨贵妃传媒視頻 is proud to announce the reintroduction of our historic Legislative Affairs Director student leadership position and the launch of our new Advocacy & Action arm. This revitalization reflects our renewed commitment to ensuring that our advocacy is principled, courageous, and grounded in community.

It is my great pleasure to formally introduce Donya Ahmadian as 杨贵妃传媒視頻鈥檚 newest Legislative Affairs Director, whose leadership embodies this spirit. Over the past few months, you have heard from the two of us as we have entered into this period of renewed action. Today, I am delighted to present you with Donya鈥檚 reflections on this moment and her evolving vision guiding 杨贵妃传媒視頻鈥檚 renewed Advocacy & Action Arm.

In solidarity,听

Nikitha Balaji (they/them)

American Medical Student Association National President听

____________________________________________________________________________

A Message from Donya Ahmadian

American Medical Student Association Legislative Affairs Director听

Dear Friends,

Advocacy has always been the central wellspring of 杨贵妃传媒視頻鈥檚 mission. In the 1950鈥檚, 杨贵妃传媒視頻, then known as the Student American Medical Association (SAMA), made the courageous decision to break away from the American Medical Association (AMA). At the time, the AMA鈥檚 philosophical orientation was in clear misalignment with student voices, who were centering their visions on advancing civil and human rights. Much like today, this boldness and commitment to the core of our integrity can feel incredibly frightening. Students walked the difficult threadlines of facing professional backlash, navigating institutional power dynamics, and finding their voices amongst the many others encouraging conformation to a version of medicine they were unwilling to participate in.听

Understandably, when faced with such a decision point- capitulation can feel like the path of least resistance- oftentimes, because it is. A defining feature of various systems of oppression share this quality- encouraging contortion of one鈥檚 own value systems to fit what is palatable to the most powerful. The tension that exists in this space can be sacred to identify & as late psychiatrist Viktor Frankl once wrote鈥︹�澨�

鈥淏etween stimulus and response there is a 蝉辫补肠别鈥�

in that space is our power to choose our response.鈥�

Frankl goes on to share that in this response, whatever it may be, we will find both our 鈥済rowth鈥� and our 鈥渇reedom.鈥� This begs the question-听 how do we reach this sense of freedom when knowing how to respond can feel so disillusioning? So frightening? So unknown? When we are faced with risking the same backlash as our predecessors who paved the way for us?听

That is the very element of medicine that we at AMSA believe needs to be addressed. The field was not made to uplift individualistic ideologies that drown out the voices of its people. When we make that very oath to do no harm- when we feel our white coats first graze our backs- we believed in something greater. We refuse to believe that this calling is being mirrored in the medical and sociopolitical landscape we are living in. Equally, we are energized by that truth we first sought. For, that which binds us here at AMSA may feel like the very values that separate us in other spaces- and if we can allow that discomfort to coexist with the vision we have clung to- then we will continue to pave our way.听

That is not a check engine light telling us we are on the wrong path- but instead, that we are the long path of the very freedom Frankl was referencing. When the freedom of choice feels threatened at every corner- we are here to remind one another that our humanity is not something for sale. Autonomy of choice is not a privilege to be earned- or kept accessible to the groups of our choosing. As a physician, this is one of our primary groundings- to care deeply for others in their wholeness- acknowledging their totality and the many elements that contribute to wellness and illness. It is not, however, an opportunity to cast judgement and dictate worthiness or access to life-saving and life-enhancing care. Quite simply, you cannot truly take care of people when you deny who they fundamentally are and what they fundamentally need.

For us here at AMSA, these are the reflections we have been sitting with. The critical examination of the world we are living in- the moral reckoning with the harm around us- and asking where we fit within the larger ecosystem of it all. Further, we recognize that we only ask ourselves these questions when something incredibly precious feels on the line.听

We are here to assure you that the walls you painted with the dreams that brought you into medicine remain real and tangible. The care we find in one another reminds us that hope, too, is this at its very core. When we look closely, we can find a million reasons to still see this hope everywhere- and we see this mirrored when we think of you.

Your voices matter in every space that you feel called to enter. You are truth-tellers, rooted in the fight for equity in all its forms. We believe that health is a human right- much like access to the very things that make health possible and give it its best chance to grow. Embedded in this belief is the understanding that health is multidimensional-a living tapestry woven from a shared sense of belonging and safety. Where legality is not a term used to define a living person. Where compassion is not a privilege but an extension of human dignity- owed to all. In short, human rights is a nonpartisan issue.听

For us at AMSA, these guiding emotions and reflections have been redefining what advocacy means to us- not just in spirit- but in its very core. We are so proud of the work that each of you, our incredible members, have poured into each season of this journey. Now, as we meet this moment, we are intentionally returning to the very legacy that first brought us together.听

Beginning with our Code Blue movement last year, we have been listening closely to you- working to build a safe harbor for you to land. There is a place for you in the hills and valleys of this world and we hope that one of them can always be here with us. Whether in still or raging waters, there is something so foundationally captivating about a lighthouse. The path towards land may be treacherous and daunting- but there it remains- lying still, firm, and rooted. Lighthouses are an invitation to believe that no matter where we are in our journeys, there is something out there waiting for us- just in case we want or need it. It both lights our path and in the darkness, reminds us that even when the shore feels out of reach, it has never left us. To believe in the unseen or that which we cannot yet feel is a discipline, much like hope, as abolitionist Mariame Kaba taught us.听

That is our vow to you and as we build our vision for the coming years, we hope you will dream alongside us. To reflect this, we have intentionally restructured the Advocacy arm of our organization as a renewed path- Advocacy & Action. This division of our organization will serve, with revitalized energy and purpose, and be clearly focused upon uplifting the democracy we believe in- one that is centered in social justice, human rights, and equity for every being- full stop. We will be guided by transparent values which will reflect AMSA鈥檚 organizational priorities through a focused lens, anchoring three foundational pillars to guide us in this reorientation-advocacy, education, and community. These pillars serve as the architecture of our lighthouse- the beams that will hold the infrastructure of our vision and thread them together, right alongside you.听

It is our hope that you will see yourself within each of these pillars. In education, we see the expansion of our moral imaginations and the development and maintenance of curriculum rooted in liberatory medicine- things we will not often find within the walls of our institutions. In advocacy, we will find the building of our tangible skillsets- such as call-in鈥檚 to Congress, sign-on letters, and rapid response elements- engaging in concentrated action to drive change.听

From this north star, we harness the power of learning to strategically and 听emphatically utilize our voices for what we not only believe- but know 听is right. We will witness how our power compounds when we are fundamentally equipped to听 respond to the issues around us- when we normalize the duality of fear- for with it and through it, we can build courage. Finally, through a focus upon community, we reflect the integrated understanding that to feel empowered to build our advocacy, we must feel safe enough to make sense of the many emotions we are experiencing. In a system that induces paralysis and nervous system dysregulation- here, we can normalize anger, confusion, and fear- and channel it into the building blocks for our sacred belonging. To feel deeply is not a liability- but an indicator that you are on the right side of history. Together, we can validate this shared lived experience, investing in nonjudgmental spaces and unifying our voices for the change we seek.听

As we walk this journey together, I bring us to a final message from author Donna Roberts:听

鈥淎 friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.鈥�

We hope we can be that friend. When the world feels heavy, may we be willing to sing the song in our hearts back to one another- for words etched in permanence can never truly be forgotten- much like our dream for the world we wish to practice our version of medicine & healing in.

We will deepen this conversation this week at Health Equity Week of Action (HEWA), beginning at 6:00 PM ET this evening, where we will spend the next 5 days co-dreaming together.

On our HEWA landing page, you can explore our daily themes and featured speakers/programming in detail. We have the gift of hosting so many aligned allies, including the , , , the , DC’s, / the , , from UCLA/Harbor-UCLA/USC, , , and the , amongst various 杨贵妃传媒視頻 national leaders and staff.

As a general note: indicating interest for any single event on our grants you automatic access to all sessions, as the Zoom link recurs for each gathering.听

It is such a privilege to be in this fight with you .

Let鈥檚 get started.

With care,

BLACK HISTORY MONTH
SPOTLIGHT ON REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE听

Not Your Experiment: The Experimentation of African Americans in the name of 鈥淢edical Advancement鈥澨�

Written by Taylor Spears, MD, Reproductive Health Project Fellow

As a Black woman in medicine, I recognize the history of medicine and its effect on minority populations, specifically the African American population, are often responsible for the distrust that is frequently observed in patient rooms today.听

Far too often, Black women and men have been subjected to harmful conditions and used as nonconsenting experiments under the guise of 鈥渕edical advancement.鈥澨�

From the Tuskegee Experiment, to government environmental experiments on urban communities, to physical and surgical experimentation experienced by enslaved people. In my position as Reproductive Health Project Fellow, in this first week of Black History Month, I feel it is most appropriate to bring acknowledgement to the Mothers of Gynecology.

Anarcha, Betsey, and Lucy were enslaved black, teenage girls in Montgomery County, Alabama in the 1840鈥檚. Without consent, they were subjected to gynecologic experimentation by Dr. J. Marion Sims. During these experiments, there was no pain management administered for even the slightest bit of comfort for these women, in what was already an inevitably uncomfortable situation both psychologically and physically.听

Dr. Sims鈥� 鈥�medical treatment鈥� was sought by the enslavers of Betsey, Anarcha, and Lucy after they experienced long term complications of childbirth. Sims experimented on at least ten enslaved women during this time, some undergoing 30 or more procedures. These procedures were often witnessed by other curious physicians; and, as enslaved people, consent was not a legal requirement, as slaves were viewed as property.听

Sims went on to be known for his 鈥�discoveries鈥�, some being discontinued shortly after, while the young ladies used in these experiments were forgotten in the background of history. It should be noted that the enslavers of these women likely sought treatment driven by their desire for these women to continue working and childbearing. Even today, black women鈥檚 pain is not taken seriously nor is it managed properly. Only recently, were the Mothers of Gynecology recognized for their involuntary contributions to the field of medicine. Today, we share our empathy and gratitude for the Mothers of Gynecology.

鈥淩eproductive Justice is a framework that focuses on the combination of reproductive rights, human rights, and social justice.鈥� – Loretta Ross

Language access in healthcare is a fundamental clinical skill, vital for the quality, safety, and efficiency of patient care. For the nation鈥檚 41 million Spanish speakers, preventable barriers often lead to delayed diagnosis, complicated treatment, and eroded trust.

Closing the Gap in Medical Spanish

CanopyLearn is an NIH-supported Medical Spanish eLearning program designed to create a pipeline of qualified bilingual staff. Built exclusively for healthcare, its curriculum goes beyond vocabulary and grammar, integrating medical terminology, cultural competency, and realistic patient-provider dialogues to support genuine clinical communication.

Why Qualified Bilingual Staff are Essential

Qualified bilingual clinicians are key to continuity of care. They:

• Reduce avoidable delays by not depending on constant interpreter availability.
• Enhance accuracy in critical patient information like symptom and medication histories.
• Improve rapport and trust, leading to better patient adherence and more efficient visits.
• Support interpreter workflows by managing low-risk interactions in Spanish and knowing when to escalate to a certified interpreter.

Investing in bilingual staff consistently improves outcomes across the domains of the Language Access Index (LAI), an NIH-funded benchmarking tool.

Research-Backed Foundation: The Language Access Index (LAI)

The LAI, developed from stakeholder interviews and a systematic review of over 200 empirical studies, identifies 10 core domains for reliable, safe, and cost-effective language access. Organizations with CanopyLearn-trained staff are better positioned to achieve faster workflows, greater patient satisfaction, and fewer communication-related safety events, driving a clear ROI.

Skill Building as an Efficiency and ROI Strategy

CanopyLearn boosts operational efficiency by equipping clinicians to handle routine, low-risk Spanish interactions (greetings, comfort statements, simple explanations) without delay. These smooth micro-exchanges accelerate the entire workflow, from pre-arrival to discharge, reducing interruptions and errors. The course supports busy schedules with audio role-play, a medical Spanish telenovela (El Puente del Destino), and mobile microlearning.

Measurable Returns on Investment

The ROI is evident in:

• Higher patient satisfaction within Spanish-speaking communities.
• Reduced operational friction and fewer workflow delays.
• Lower rework and fewer communication breakdowns, improving safety.
• Enhanced trust and loyalty, which boost retention.

CanopyLearn is a strategic investment in bilingual workforce capacity, patient trust, and the operational excellence essential for modern healthcare.

Next Step: Executive Leadership in Language Access

Organizations can scale these benefits with our forthcoming Executive Training Program, which teaches leaders how to operationalize language access across governance, workflow, automation, financial modeling, and systemwide ROI.

Your 3-Month Study Plan for the MCAT Exam

Making a plan is a crucial aspect of preparing for the MCAT exam鈥攁nd it can also be one of the most difficult. Experts recommend that students spend 300-350 hours studying. Three months might seem like plenty of time, but you’ll need to thoughtfully structure your days in order to score competitively.

Our experts broke down what you need to know.

Cultivating Connection, Belonging, and Hope at AMSA

Written by Nikitha Balaji, 杨贵妃传媒視頻 National President and Donya Ahmadian, 杨贵妃传媒視頻 Legislative Affairs Director

In the last several months, we have thought deeply about what we love so much about our 杨贵妃传媒視頻 community and the ways we can continue to nurture meaningful connections with you. This is of course important always, and especially in this current moment, as the very nature of what we hold dear can feel at risk. As we lean into the holiday season, it is especially important that we consider the value of coming together and to create spaces where this connection can flourish.听

As this year has evolved, we have witnessed increasing attempts to deny us all our fundamental human rights. In the face of this, we know that it is an especially hard time to be a student, and, moreso, a difficult time to exist in our full personhood. Between the rigor of our lives as students and the deeply troubling times we are living in, it is easy to feel disconnected, disjointed, and fragmented from a sense of community and this world. That is where the safe harbor that we have built together can stand tall- a place where we can rest and return to ourselves. At times such as these, 杨贵妃传媒視頻 endeavors to provide structured support and companionship in equal measure, as we find the courage within ourselves and in others to call for a more just version of medicine, medical education, and our world.听

In the fight for universal human rights and health justice for all, we at AMSA want to affirm that hope is a verb. We enact hope when we tell our stories, organize for collective action, and gather together to make a difference. This important work is made possible when we are empowered to connect with one another as a practice of Love, and in doing so, we open ourselves up to the experience of joy in manifesting Beloved Community. Whether you are feeling energized, exhausted, hopeful, heavy-hearted, or a mix of these and so many more- as we often are- this space is for you.

With hope is a verb in mind we invite you to join us in slowing down together as we draw the year to a close with our first Community Building Holiday Happy Hour, December 21st at 5:00 PM ET. This virtual gathering will be the first of many that has been intentionally designed with you in mind- a place to rest our hearts, minds, and spirits. and we would love to practice this art of stillness together. Our original invitation can be found below.听

Know that however this season is meeting you,
you will forever and always have a seat saved for you in this circle.听
