About Us

The Emergency Medicine Interest Group (EMIG) at ISMMS is a student-led organization dedicated to fostering early exposure and enthusiasm for the field of emergency medicine. EMIG serves as a bridge between pre-clinical education and real-world emergency care, providing opportunities for hands-on learning, mentorship, and career exploration. Each term, EMIG hosts the popular 10-week NEXUS course Intro to Emergency Medicine. Taught by emergency medicine residents, this in-person course covers foundational concepts and practical skills essential to emergency care. Topics include ultrasound guidance, trauma response, toxicology, code running, ECG interpretation, and more. The elective emphasizes skills applicable not only in emergency settings but across a wide range of medical specialties.
