Frontline Warriors
We’re in a world war right now, not a war against  human or alien invaders, but against a miniscule crowned virus, coded as COVID-19 (Corona Virus Disease of 2019). In every war, there are always courageous warriors manning the furrows and trenches. In this war against COVID-19, these are our doctors, nurses, laboratory technicians, security guards, peace enforcers, and other health warriors. They’ve cast their personal fears, so the afflicted may be nourished back to health. With these gallant frontliners, we’re confident we’ll end up triumphant.

The UP Medical Alumni Society Advocating Excellence Beyond Graduation

Even if it has been years since they received their diploma, the alumni of the University of the Philippines College of Medicine (UPCM) still uphold the values of professional excellence and sociocivic consciousness their Alma Mater had imbued in them.

On the occasion of the upcoming UP Medical Alumni Society Homecoming, the UPCM Class 1992—the Silver Jubilarians—has prepared a year-long grand celebration of various meaningful events, with the theme this year as Walang Katulad. This phrase refers to the uniqueness of each graduate as an individual, and also collectively as a ‘tribe’ with one set of aspirations and values, despite their diversity.

In this issue, we focus on the accomplishments and advocacies of the returning alumni and their other undertakings, which is their way of giving back.
