Thank you very much to all that attended Dr. Lee’s presentation “Navigating the U.S. Residency System as an International Medical Graduate”. Dr. Lee covered a variety of topics regarding the U.S. residency application such as match statistics, sub-internships, what programs are looking for, personal statements, interview advice, recommendation letters, and more! This was followed by the group of panelists that answered questions many international medical graduates had. For those that were unable to attend, we have provided a recording of the session below! https://youtu.be/gsvulSSIBGg Thank you very much to all that helped to host the event, and we hope that the session provided participants with information to help you successfully navigate the U.S. residency application. We look forward to seeing you at our future events!
Mayor Adams' Asian American & Pacific Islander Her Mayor Adams' Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Reception 2023: Maki Kano Lydia Horiguchi Mio Sawai and Mari Morimoto attended the reception on 5/23/23.

JMSA had a great turnout at the Japan Parade 2023 JMSA had a great turnout at the Japan Parade 2023 on 5/13/23. It was the first time to participate. We had almost 40 marchers comprised of JMSA Board members, members, family, friends, and office staff. Everyone had a great time and we were proud to represent JMSA as we marched down Central Park West on a beautiful Saturday. Dr. Makoto Iwahara, a past president, took the prize for having the most family members there and Dr. Kichiemon Asoma, a JMSA board member, took the prize for having the most staff members from his office participate. We held signs that described JMSA’s programs such as mentoring and health care education. We wore matching t-shirts that were designed by Mari Iwahara. We gave away 80 toy stethoscopes to spectators and wore silly sunglasses. Many marchers were already discussing plans for the 2024 parade such as ways to have more interaction with the spectators. Board member Dr. Naomi Hayashi’s daughter Kimberly Wei stole the show as Rilakkumma. The Japan parade was a great opportunity to spread the word about JMSA to the community and it was a great way to bring JMSA members and their families together!

JMSA hosts its first Benefactor’s Appreciation R JMSA hosts its first Benefactor’s Appreciation Reception (Part 2)! On Friday, March 3, 2023, JMSA hosted its first Benefactor’s Appreciation Reception at the Yale Club. The reception brought together the JMSA board members, members, generous donors, and some prospective donors. The standing dinner/cocktail-style reception made it conducive for the guests to have a chance to connect and network. The purpose of the reception was to thank the generous benefactors for their support of JMSA as well as to allow JMSA to update the donors and prospective donors about our current programs. JMSA President, Maki Kano welcomed the guests and noted that JMSA is very fortunate to have many donors who have supported JMSA’s programs over the years. She mentioned that JMSA sincerely hopes the donors can also help us to take an active part in spreading the word about JMSA and the excellent work that it does. The 10-minute video about JMSA’s history, present, and future was shown that summarized JMSA’s programs. The event, which was very well attended with over 50 guests, was a great success and JMSA hopes to make this donor appreciation reception an annual event.
