In past years, we have worked to integrate climate content into the Mount Sinai&#8217;s curriculum by completing the Planetary Health Report Card, a standardized tool that evaluates the medical school&#8217;s performance on curriculum, support for student-led initiatives, community engagement, interdisciplinary research, and campus sustainability. We have also organized sustainability-related events and services, including biannual clothing swaps, battery recycling bins in the library and in Aron Hall, and free distribution of compost bags and bins to help students reduce food waste. This year, our members also piloted the Nexus Course &#8220;Sustainability and Medicine&#8221;, which enrolled 10 first year students and will run again in the fall.<\/p>\n<p><b>Who We Are<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Melissa Blum, melissa.blum@icahn.mssm.edu<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Faculty\/Staff Advisor:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Dr. Perry Sheffield, perry.sheffield@mssm.edu<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact us: ms4sfmed@gmail.com<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Note: All students are welcome to join any Mount Sinai student organization.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About Us Medical Students for a Sustainable Future at Mount Sinai is our local chapter of the national organization Medical Students for a Sustainable Future, which is a community of early career health professionals dedicated to addressing the health harms of climate change.
