Jefferson Anesthesia Society

The Jefferson Anesthesia Society (JAS) is SKMC's student interest group for the specialty of anesthesiology. The JAS hosts lectures throughout the year by Jefferson anesthesiology residents and attendings, regarding the work and lifestyle of an anesthesiologist, as well as connects students to ongoing research opportunities. The JAS also organizes practical workshops in the Hamilton Simulation Center, where students can practice skills such as intubation on models. Near the end of the academic year, the JAS hosts a post-match Q&A panel where recently matched 4th-year students discuss the application and interview process to anesthesiology residency.
