The Swiss Medical Students’ Association also called swimsa is an independent and politically neutral association of medical students in Switzerland. Students of the medical faculties of Basel, Berne, Fribourg, Geneva, Lausanne and Zurich are represented on a national and international level. ==History== 1917 the medical faculties of Switzerland were united to the Association of Swiss Clinicians "Verband der Schweizer Klinkerschaften" (VDSK). In 1951 the IFMSA (International Federation of Medical Students' Associations) was founded by the VDSK and associations of six other countries in Copenhagen, Denmark.〔() History on the official website of IFMSA〕〔() History on the official website from swimsa〕 From then on the IFMSA has been representing the interests of medical students on an international level. Later on the VDSK underwent a reform to become the Association of Swiss Medical Students (Verband der Schweizer Medizinstudenten) VSM, from which the organization IFMSA Switzerland had split, concentrating solely on professional clinical exchange for medical students. In 2006 the VMS and IFMSA approached each other and decided to create a joined venture under the name swimsa - Swiss Medical Students’ Association. Nonetheless IFMSA-Switzerland mutated to swimsa Exchanges and remained a legally independent organization, still taking care of international exchanges. Further founding members of swimsa were the medical student organizations "Achtung Liebe", promoting sexual health and education, and "Gruhu", enabling medical students to volunteer for clinical electives in third world countries. In 2014 the organization swimsa Exchanges was dissolved and formally integrated into swimsa. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Swiss Medical Students’ Association」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
