UQRIG's Student Exec

From the OGs to the new MVPs continuing to increase club activities and engagement, come get to know us!

Our Start

Hi there! My name is Tonchanok Intaprasert, but since you're getting to know me here already - you can just call me "Can". I founded UQRIG because I was pleasantly surprised at how much I loved looking at grey scales (don't judge until you try - at our UQRIG academic events of course😉) but still making it ✨medicine ✨.

Because I found my interest so close to the end of med school, I wanted to start this group to get students more opportunities to be exposed and involved in radiology from the get-go. Since then, we've had multiple events each month ranging from academic workshops/ seminars, training pathway advice, and networking socials - all thanks to the amazing support from Brisbane radiologists and trainees.

As I've recently graduated and will be interning outside of Brissy, I'd like to introduce you all to the amazing team of students who came on board as the very first group of execs to help establish UQRIG; and the ones who will be making sure that you continue to have access to current (and more) amazing events (scroll down to read all about them)! For now, I'm back to packing for my move but if you remain engaged with UQRIG, I will see you around in an advisory capacity as I hand over the club presidency to our first VP.

Bye for now!

Can Intaprasert,

UQRIG Founder & June 2021 - '22 President

UQRIG's First Networking Night 2022

Meet The Inaugural Team

Mitchell Rosenberger
- Jan - June 2022, VP
- June - Dec 2022, President
- Often the most well dressed with a smile you can spot across the room - our incoming President, Mitch, can be seen pulling off any florals and making it ✨chic✨

Sara Ahmed
- Jan - Dec 2022, Academics Director
- Med school overwhelming you? When you're around Sara you can be sure to have a gentle voice guiding you to success. No wonder our academic events are always sold out!

Brendon Song
- Jan - Dec 2022, Research Co-director
- Need a radio-host worthy voice to MC your next event? Brendon is your guy! If you're a UQRIG fan you've probably already seen and heard him as the voice/ presenter at many of our events.

Jale Manzo
- Jan - Dec 2022, Research Co-director
- Not just a beauty but she's also the organising queen! You can thank her for all the clinical forums plus her amazing brainstorming insight for other portfolio events to boot.

DY Wang
- Jan - Dec 2022, Networking Director
- Had a blast at our social/ networking event? DY's your guy. He's been approached by the likes of Justin Bieber and Arianna Grande to throw some parties but he remains committed to UQRIG.

Netra Nair
- Jan - Dec 2022, Marketing Director
- Proof that you don't need to be tiktok famous to create good content. Netra got your UQRIG insta, facebook, and other socials covered. Although if you're lucky she may share with you some spicy tiktok content.

Kiran Grewal
- Mar - Dec 2022, Treasurer
- This sweet Canadian gal ensures our whole team doesn't overspend - secretly, we think she's budgeting so we can take a trip with her to Banff (AB, Canada)?? (We can only hope)😉

Joy Yeh
- Jan - Dec 2022, Sponsorship Director
- Who says being half way across the world means you can't still be involved in UQRIG? Joy has successfully shown us she can work in any conditions - securing our first sponsorship with QLD XRay!

Cherie Cheng
- Mar - Dec 2022, Secretary
- A whiz in med school, a whiz with zoom, a whiz with google docs... and you're telling me magic isn't real?!?!

Lastly, a shout out to all the future amazing execs to come after our inaugural team. 💗
