An important task for me as MMS president-elect is to appoint members to the Society’s committees. Our committees promote member interests and MMS policy positions to the public, legislature, businesses, and state agencies.
Because the perspectives, ideas, and input of resident and fellow physicians are vital to committee success, I am hopeful that many of you will be willing to serve and actively engage.
Please review the list of MMS committees and sections. If you are interested in serving on a committee, please complete the brief application form and return it with a statement of interest and copy of your CV by Tuesday, February 17, 2026.
To encourage appropriate representation of the Resident and Fellow Section (RFS), all residents and fellow committee appointments will be made in conjunction with input from MMS Resident and Fellow Section leadership. Up to two residents or fellows may
be appointed per committee.
Most committee meetings occur via zoom; however, if there is an option to attend a committee meeting in-person, the Society will reimburse mileage, tolls and parking costs in order to facilitate your participation.
Your involvement in Society’s programs, activities, and committees helps shape the future of medicine. I look forward to working with you.
