About us
Peer-to-peer tutoring association
Goal
Our goal is to give all students the opportunity to engage with ultrasound practice, as it is essential for future doctors
Origins
Our group was established at the University of Milan in 2012, thanks to the initiative of Dr. Carmelo Messina and Professor Francesco Sardanelli.
Activities
Today, thanks to the dedication of over 30 tutors, we provide daily ultrasound practice lessons at various locations, using a peer-to-peer teaching approach
The European network
We are part of a European network of student associations with the same goal.
Originally founded in Vienna in 2007, the association now has 11 branches, with Sono4You Milan being the only one in Italy.
Our activities
We organize lessons for students enrolled in the Degree Course in Medicine and Surgery, starting from the second semester of the third year.

Every year, we train new tutors who strengthen and expand our large team.
