The International Association of Medical Science Educators (IAMSE) is pleased to announce the call for focus sessions for the 22nd Annual IAMSE Conference to be held at the Green Valley Ranch and Resort, just outside of Las Vegas, from June 9-12, 2018. The IAMSE meeting offers opportunities for faculty development and networking, bringing together medical sciences and medical education across the continuum of health care education.
The purpose of a 90-minute Focus Session is to âfocus inâ on a specific topic in small group discussion format. Groups of 10-50 individuals consider a particular topic in an interactive format. Formats can be variable. Additional information about Focus Group formats is available here.
This yearâs theme is, âIntegrating Nutrition and Wellness Education in Teaching the Health Sciences.â Please note that Focus Sessions do not necessarily need to be related to either wellness or nutrition.
All abstracts must be submitted in the format requested through the online abstract submission site found here.
Submission deadline is September 15, 2017. Abstract acceptance notifications will be returned by November 15.
Please contact Brandi Hinkle at brandi@iamse.org for any questions about submission.
We hope to see you next year!
