The Medical Student (TMS) was a monthly print newspaper published entirely by full-time medical students from the five medical schools in London (King's College London School of Medicine and Dentistry, Imperial College School of Medicine, Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry, UCL Medical School, St George's, University of London). TMS was affiliated to London Medgroup, a collective body of Students' Union presidents and British Medical Association representatives from each of the five member medical schools.
It was an editorially independent publication with control over content and editorial appointments vested in the elected Editor-in-Chief and executive committee. TMS regularly published stories concerning medical politics, Modernising Medical Careers, London medical student issues, society, culture and United Hospitals sports news.
It ceased publication in 2016, having moved from physical to online-only publication the previous year.
