THE MEDICAL STUDENT FORUM
ON FEMALE SEXUAL MEDICINE
About the Forum
The Medical Student Forum on Female Sexual Medicine is an independent medical trainee-led organization to facilitate medical students and residents to collaborate, learn, and educate academic peers about Female Sexual Medicine (FSM). There are a variety of medical conditions and treatments addressed by this field, yet such information is typically underrepresented in medical school curricula. Knowledge of this field is a critical component of a comprehensive medical education. At the Forum, students advocate and collaborate within their academic communities on the importance of including FSM in medical school education through conducting curriculum reviews, as well as creating educational materials, lectures, discussions, and an annual Symposium featuring experts in the field of FSM. The Forum was founded in May 2020 by Jen Romanello.
Leadership
The Forum has had students from all 7 Chicago-area medical schools as part of its leadership team. We are not expanding our Leadership Team to include medical schools in the NY tristate and Philadelphia area. The advisor for the Forum is Lauren Streicher MD, Rachel Rubin MD, Mary Lynn DO, and Sameena Rahman, MD
Faculty Advisory Board
The Forum is grateful to collaborate with and have the support of professionals in the field of Female Sexual Medicine.
