Publications

MeDUSA publishes material throughout the year, covering the survival of medical school (MeDUSA Survival Guide) and a biannual magazine (The Pulse).

The Pulse

The Pulse is a student-lead and authored publication that typically comes out a couple of times each year. We look for student articles or experiences to share with all year levels and are a platform to help get your writing published! If you have an article to share in the next issue please email it to publications@medusa.org.au and we will get in touch!

1st Year Survival Guide

The Deakin Medical School 1st Year Survival Guide is a guide created to ease the nerves of starting medical school. It is created for students by students, so while we don’t give you info on assessment or course specifics, we hope to make you feel welcome and provide student experiences and tips for starting medicine at Waurn Ponds.
