What do they say?

"IMAM sympo mengubah paradigma saya tentang profession seorang doktor. Penglibatan doktor tidak hanya terhad kepada suasana di dalam hospital malah ia lebih bermakna dari itu. Peluang berjumpa doktor-doktor dari malaysia yang mempunyai pengalaman luas dalam bidang ini membuatkan saya melihat perubatan dari perspektif baru." 
Muhd Hazman Mohd Sabri, 2nd Year Leeds


"IMAM sympo gave lots of new information and opened my eyes about medical field that i never treasure before." 
Anis Maisarah Ahmad Tamerin, 2nd Year UCD

IMAM Medical Symposium 2010

Do you know that...
    IMAM Medical Symposium this year is going to be held in THREE different universities in Dublin


Trinity College Dublin
  • Its four-hundred-year-old tradition of scholarship (the oldest educational institution in Ireland) confirm its position as one of the great universities of the world

  • It is one of the MUST-VISIT on the itinerary of all visitors to Dublin, where the exhibition of Book of Kells inside the Old Library dating back from the 9th century is located within the compund of the college (if you have a friend studying in TCD, you can get into the Old Library and Book of Kells' exhibition for FREE!!)




  • Bram Stoker (author of the famous Dracula), Denis Parsons Burkitt (of Burkitts Lymphoma), Ernest Walton (Nobel Laureate in Physics) and Mary McAleese (current President of Ireland) are among the alumni of Trinity College Dublin






  • The Stories before



    Dublin Symposium 2010 will be the seventh symposium following the six successful symposiums. as i browse through imamalaysia.org, i believe priceless experience been gained by the participants from sympo 2009 which been held in Hebdenhey Scout Camp in Halifax , West Yorkshire from the 20th to 22nd March 2009. Eventhough it was just a four day programme but from my point of view, it was a great waste for those who missed this opportunity.

    Once Upon A Time..



    Dublin Symposium 2010 is a scientific congress that has been an annual tradition for Islamic Medical Association of Malaysia (IMAM). IMAM was established in 1989 and recognized as one of the largest medical professional organisation in Malaysia. It is comprised of doctors, paramedics and medical students who carry out voluntary work outside the confines of the government and private sectors. IMAM is also an active member of Federation of Islamic Medical Associations (FIMA).

    Myth vs Legends : The Objectives



    Life as a medical student is synonymous with a busy-hectic life and also books. Apart from only a handful of them who managed to break away from these stereotypes, majority of the medical students are still trapped under these stigmas,
