Specialist Sections & Boards
Specialist Divisions
Multidisciplinary Joint Committees
Thematic Federations
The UEMS represents more than 50 medical disciplines through various bodies and structures. The most important ones are the 43 Specialist Sections, which represent independently recognised specialties.
They have created a European Board as a subgroup, in conjunction with the relevant European Society, with a view to defining European standards of medical education and training.
They also contribute to the work of Multidisciplinary Joint Committees (MJC) which address fields of a multidisciplinary nature, and also within the Thematic Federations.
A detailed diagram of the Specialists Sections functioning within the UEMS is accessible here.
