Um I would just like to say as well that as someone who's also introduced, introduced, gosh, I can't talk interested in research. Um I think joining Gym socks, gym sock is a great opportunity because a lot of us are interested in research. And I feel like as students, especially in Georgia, we don't get a lot of opportunity to do research. So it's a really good idea um that we're having this. So thank you ma ha. Um So that concludes the introduction to all our executive team, both the head chapters and the local chapters. Um So now what we'll do is we'll open up the floor to all of our members and we'll allow you guys to ask any questions that you may have. Maybe you might have questions that are directed at the local head chapters or any of the head chapters or for like a specific executive. So please feel free to ask any of your questions and we'll try and answer them accordingly. I just like to let you guys know that if we don't answer your question today, um then you can contact, contact us via email, which is gym sock 21 at gmail dot com. You can also contact us on Facebook and Instagram. Um So if you would like to ask questions, please post them in the chat and we will direct your questions accordingly to the right person if anyone has any questions. Um We're just trying to navigate through. Okay. We've got one question. Um Is it possible also for the executives as well? If I read out any questions and you do think you know the answer, then please feel free to answer. Um So our first question in the chat that I can see is is it possible to be a member after graduating? Um who would like to answer that question anyone? Yeah. Uh The question, okay. It was on the phone that you guys applied for applied through uh to join gym sock. So yeah, it is possible to be a member even after you graduate. Um I just like to add to that as well. Um So what we will be doing in the upcoming weeks is actually releasing a form um that will be catered to mostly alumni um allowing you guys to register. So if you guys have already registered as alumni, that's fine. Um but we will be releasing a registration form specifically for alumni. So yeah, I hope that answers your question. Um The next oh gosh, that's sort of questions. Okay. The next question that we have is are the interviews for subcommittee position still happening. So if you have applied for subcommittee already, um then you should get a email or should have already received an email regarding your interview. If you haven't received an email, then you will receive an email relatively soon. Um Can we still apply for positions? Um So the registration for subcommittee and membership has officially closed. It closed yesterday at 11 AM, we have received a lot of requests to join the society. Um But obviously due to protocol, we had to close it at the given time. Um So that's not to say that you can't join any of our events or workshops or conferences, know you can still join um are events and our conferences which obviously you just won't be a member. And obviously certain events and workshops may be subject to a fee but I'll be a very small fee, of course. So I hope that answers that question. Um The next question we have is the workshops will be online or offline. Um Oddity. Would you like to answer that question? The DT are you present? I'll answer that question. No problem. So what the workshops will have in the hybrid format? Some of the workshops that are totally skill based would be held in the offline format and you will be well informed before the workshops that the up these are the upcoming workshops for the month so that you have ample time to apply and um plan your schedules according to it. And more often, we would have the hybrid format in which we would light stream the workshops via this platform that has made all platform and it will be easily accessible to you. Also each of the workshops and webinars that we will have, we will have the catch up content available. So it will be recorded once you register for the set workshop, most of the time you will have the access to come and revisit the ketchup content and see the webinar. So in case you have joined the webinar registered, but you have to leave in between the webinar, but you still want to know what happened afterwards. You can still come back to this platform and you can see and continue from where you left. Second, I also had seen the questions and then asking will the certificates we brought it. Definitely each and every workshop, each and every webinar, any session you participate in certificate, signed certificates be provided to you all of you. So that's not a doubt at all. You will all of you will get certificates. Then there's one question that interested me. Okay. Someone says that they are in second semester and have not completed preclinical but still are willing to do the a ski workshops. Suddenly we'll have um for specific workshops will have a webinar before each workshop. Most probably the workshop director, the events director will make sure to collaborate between both of the events. And in case there are certain workshops in which you need to know certain clinical aspects. So as to better understand the content that has been taught in the workshop. So there would be like criteria available for each workshop. There would be certain workshops that are available, all the medical students, whether you are enforced semester or you're in the last semester. And certain workshops which require you to have a basic political knowledge, like basic knowledge of pathology and internal medicine and everything. So they will have those requirements mentioned. And don't worry, we'll have events and workshops catered to all the medical students in each semester. I hope I answered your question. Okay, thank you. Thank you, Logica. Um So I've seen another question in the chat which is by Abdul. He said, what about other universities? Besides the ones mentioned on this panel? Catchy, would you like to answer that question? I will give a second. Can you see me? Okay. So uh made an open call, I think five weeks ago for um local resent it ibs um on our social with the platforms, we made an open call. Um And we had the current local representatives we have now are people who responded to the local call um to the open call. And these are people who also responded to um the interviews and showed up for the interviews. Um However, we are working hard together with our public relations officer Maha Protection. We're working to ensure that every city has a local representative because I mean, this is for all medical students in Georgia. So we're trying as much as possible to make sure that every university in Georgia, but here in Tbilisi and out of Tbilisi, we have a local representative, a local chapter head and assistant local chapter head and also subcommittees in this local chap so that we can plan our events together and coordinate events. So for now we are for now we're focusing on getting our events started. But during the academic here or during the academic cysts sinister, please keep your eyes open for when we make open calls for your local university. So if your university is not represented and you apply for a subcommittee, yes, you can still be a part of that subcommittee, but we will still make open calls for the local chapter heads um sometimes during the semester or sometimes during the academic here. So please, if you think that you are capable of your local chapter head, you can still apply even if you're part of a subcommittee, um you can still apply to be a local chapter head and we'll go through the due process and go through the interviews. I hope that answers the question. Wonderful. Thank you. Thank you, Catchy. Um So Radhika just put in the chat, she's from Alter University and she wants to apply to be a representative for university. Um Yes, of course. As catchy just said, um we will be taking open cause for people from other universities he won't mentioned today. Um So you'll be able to apply to be the local head for your university. Um Let's have a look and see what other questions we've got. This is a good question. Um from Mohammad. He says, when the research, when will the research sessions take place? Um So maybe March Harkis Im or a DT can answer that question about any upcoming research events. Um Sure. Yeah. So hi guys were trying to get cases for you and we're walking towards it. But until we do that, we'll obviously talk about introduction to research types of research projects that we can have and you will be updated about them. So we're just trying to collaborate with a lot of doctors as of now, we're trying to get as many cases and as many opportunities as we can in terms of research for you. So just keep an eye out on the whatsapp. Anyway, thank you. A DT. Um Okay, let's see. Let's see what we have, which universities can join the workshops, all universities can join the workshops. Um I mean, I don't know, a DT if you want to establish um uh more on that. Sure, why not? Um Yes, the workshops are open to everyone. One of the main ideas and goals of Gym sock is to include all the international and all the medical students' as much as we can. So sign up for the workshops will send out forms before each workshop, you'll be updated about it and it is not restricted to only one or a specific university. So if you're in Tbilisi and if you can attend the workshop, you're more than welcome to and you're highly agreed to actually. Okay. Thank you very much, Aditi. Um Let's see what else we have in the chat. Okay. Um Okay, these are interview specific questions um but I can type these into the chat. Um So any any requests that people have um regarding subcommittee interviews, please email us again. Our email is Jim Sock 21 at gmail dot com and we will reply to you in due time. Um So does anyone else have any other questions that they would like to ask. Um again, we still have a bit of time so you can enter them into the chat. I see a question uh you're asking like for example, who will be leading the workshops and how will you recruit them? Uh for the workshops? We will make sure there are doctors, for example, for the April workshops, we have E C G workshop. So the doctor we have it will be led by doctors and you will have volunteers from either the volunteers will be from the executive boat from gym sock or gym stock members. And most most often they would be the final year medical students. And how will you decide the eligibility? See for the workshops definitely will have doctors and some of the most of the time they would be international doctors or maybe Georgian doctors. So that's the criteria. We have a proper format professional format of sending the applications and everything and then the doctors agree and for your information, we have been contacted by doctors. They are eager to hold workshop for students. So that's a plus point. Next question that I see is one second. Okay. Um Do we as non members decide I as non members decide what topics to have for workshops for or skis? Definitely, if you have not registered for Jim Socket, I would suggest register as soon as possible. And uh if you have any suggestions, we are always open to suggestions, you can send in your suggestions by our social media platform or you can email us directly and we would definitely take in your suggestions and locations would depend upon the universities as you know, we already have in major universities, we have local chapters. So we'll have workshops either at local chapters or at the head chapter that is envy you. So that would be informed. All the registered members will be informed where the workshops will be held well in time so that you can, as I mentioned before. So you will have all the information beforehand, one week, two weeks before each workshop, so that you can plan everything accordingly. Thank you, Latika. Um Sorry. D to do expand on what uh Medica has said. Yes. Um So uh to answer your questions uh has actually answered it quite well, but I'll say again that you will be provided with all the necessary uh details and uh the forms that will be used for signing up for the workshops and events and you cannot work better at these workshops, you can learn and we're always will really open to your feedback. So you will also be given feedback, feedback forms and certificates will also be provided to you. So um don't worry. And uh okay, thank you. Thank you. A DT. Um Let me just see if there are any other questions that we haven't covered today. Um So I'll just go through them quickly. Um So when will the next call for subcommittee and membership be. Um once again. Um Unfortunately, guys, we have closed membership and registration for subcommittees. Um registration week commence from the 30th and it finished yesterday. Um So we will not be accepting anymore members or any applications for subcommittees. However, we will reopen the registration process for both of these next semester. And again, just because you're not a member doesn't mean that you can't attend. Our events are, events are open to everyone. Once again, the vision for gym sock is to have equal opportunity amongst everyone. Um So don't stress if you weren't able to sign up. Um How can we have close connection to gym sock people? This is a good question. Um I guess I'll just partially answer and then if anyone wants to take the floor then feel free. Um But obviously keeping update with our social media reaching out to people like a DT said, sending in your feedback because we really appreciate feedback and allows us to grow, allows us to bring more opportunities to you guys. Uh I hope that answers your question. Do we have new subjects in clinical medicine and surgery that can add in workshops? Um Aditi would you like to answer that? Uh Sure, absolutely. Uh If you have any specific suggestions regarding that, kindly let us know through our social media and email. Uh I would also like to add a bigger someone asked about the monthly medical journal. So the monthly medical journal sessions will involve um talk involved, talks about clinical research and research papers in general. We'll give you more details and the outline of the sessions. When we near the session, it will be uh it is supposed to be every last Thursday of each month. So you have the update soon enough and to also answer another question. Will there be patient interactions or will be you're making more friends with Mana Quince again? Well, we'll try to get mannequins because um well, they help us uh loan better, but uh you will get to have a patient interactions in the sense that we'll try and be your patient's because one of our amazing and in credible workshop coming up is the cakes and consultation where um we'll have cases, actual cases and you would get to talk about them and consultations. And again, the details will be provided to you before the event. Thank you very much. Uh um I just like to say thank you to all of our executive members who have an answering questions today. Um I don't think there's any more questions as of yet. We still have a bit of time. Um But just before the end, um I would like to introduce Shona. Um she is one of the head local chapters for um Tbilisi State University um Shona. So if you can hear us and can come onto the stage and introduce yourself, Cheryl, uh okay, not to worry again. Um You'll definitely meet her if you do attend Tbilisi State University or if you do um decide to attend any of our in person or offline um or online workshops or events. Um So it doesn't look like we have any more active questions in the chat. Um So what I will do is just once again, thank all of you guys for coming to our very first online meeting. It was really lovely having all of you here today and I'm excited to meet all of you guys in person as well. Once again, if you have any queries, oh, I think we have a question in the chat, but once again, if you have any queries, um please don't hesitate to contact us again. You can contact us via email, you can contact us via Facebook, Instagram and we're always willing to answer any of your questions. Um So we do have a question. So someone says, well, we get the chance to interact with students from universities outside of Georgia. This is a very good question. Would any of these executives like to answer this question? Hello again. So we have planned international events. Um We have two of the international workshops coming up this April. So stay tuned. We will have a lot of international uh interactions. You will, we are already in terms of collaborating with most of the British student societies as well as us medical student societies. So you will definitely have international interactions. Do we have any other questions? Uh We have one more question, we have time for one more question and then I'll hand over to D T um just to explain to us one of our upcoming events. But um the last question is about conferences, uh Moustafa, if you want to answer this question about conferences, are we going to have them during the vacation between semesters? Uh while the date for the conference hasn't been decided yet, there's going to be one every year, one major one every year. While the date for that hasn't been decided yet. We would like the conferences to be during the semester. We don't want it to interfere with your studies. But at the same time, a lot of the students that are registered with us or international students and they might travel back home. So it would be a better opportunity for everyone to attend. If the, if the conference is conducted during the semester, we'll try our best to get on a weekend. So everyone's free. But as of now, the exact date hasn't been the side yet but will be announced in the future. Thank you very much, Mr for. Um So yeah, we've run out of time guys.

Um If any of the executives have anything specific they would like to say before we leave. Feel free. No. Okay. Okay. Okay. I would just like to say that it's once again, an honor to have you guys here and have you guys been part of the team? Um Please, like our band director has said, we're really open to feedback. We're really open to your suggestions were really open to your ideas. Also, um The point is to provide content and to provide opportunities for students that relevant to them. So if there is anything that's relevant to you or relevant to your school or relevant to your medical pathway, please do let us know we'll try as much as possible on our end to um get it done. Um And if your idea isn't implemented, it's not because we're not working on it or it might just be because we do not have the resources, resources at the moment to ensure that it's done. But once we have the resources, we'll definitely do our best to ensure that we can have that opportunity present to all the students and we can have those opportunities available. So, thank you so much again guys for your time. What's that over to you? Yeah, I was just going to answer the one last question. Sorry to. And if I'm taking your job here, it is the question about the gym sock executive graduating and how we fill the roles after them. So even though a lot of us are in higher semesters, some of us are even have even graduate or are close to graduating. Uh the gym sock executives will be responsible for appointing someone in their position. It will be up to the election and applications will be open. There'll be interviews to be a whole extensive process. We will make sure that everyone that gets an executive position is able to fulfill their job to the highest standard and they will be held accountable for whatever the responsibility they get. Very nice answer. Thank you, Mr for, thank you. That was very helpful. Um So I just like to say thank you guys once again for joining us today.
