Call for Topics & Session Ideas - Deadline Reminder!

Call for Topics & Session Ideas - Deadline Reminder!

As many of us are making our plans to attend the 2013 IAMSE meeting to be held in St. Andrews, Scotland, I would like to request your assistance in the early stages of planning for our 2014 meeting to be held in Nashville, Tennessee (June 7-10, 2014)

The 2014 program planning committee has already begun its task to help prepare this meeting and at this time we are soliciting your ideas to help develop content for this meeting. Through this “Call for Topics” we are asking for your input on topics and themes you think are important to contemporary medical science educators. At our annual meetings we offer a variety of different sessions including day long faculty development sessions, workshops, plenary sessions, panel discussions, focus sessions, poster presentations and electronic demonstrations. We now ask you to submit your ideas and suggestions directly to the 2014 program planning committee by directing emails to Julie@iamse.org. The committee will use these suggestions to plan the activities for our 2014 meeting. The deadline for submitting your ideas for potential topics is May 15th, 2013.

We look forward to your input and hearing your ideas!

Greg Smith, Ph.D. (on behalf of the 2014 program planning committee)
