ABOUT ECCO
Early Learning in Medicine Clinical Conference Otago (ECCO) is an annual conference held for 2nd and 3rd year medical students at the University of Otago Medical School.
ECCO 2025 will be the 20th iteration hosted by the Otago University Medical Students’ Association (OUMSA). This year’s theme, “QUEST: Forge the Future”, aims to deepen the passion within medical students as they make a start into their exciting yet grueling careers, and promotes perseverance alongside curiosity into various specialties within the medical field. Forge the Future encapsulates the essence of empowerment and elevation which is what ECCO 2025 aims to provide
OUR MISSION
YOUR LOCAL CONFERENCE
ECCO, originally named MECA (Medical Educational Conference of Aotearoa), aims to set the academic foundations of the medical students attending for their future careers by firstly providing a pre-clinical conference (the first of many for the students) introducing them to the intricacies of medical conferences and secondly by covering interesting and important aspects of the medical field not covered by the medical school curriculum.
