The AMA’s stated mission is to promote the art and science of medicine for the betterment of the public health, to advance the interests of physicians and their patients, to promote public health, to lobby for legislation favorable to physicians and patients, and to raise money for medical education.
Medical students are represented in the AMA through their own democratic, policy-making body: the American Medical Association – Medical Student Section (AMA-MSS).
The AMA-MSS is dedicated to representing medical students, improving medical education, developing leadership, and promoting activism for the health of America.
