The Department of Medical Education at the University of Southern California presents our 16th annual Innovations in Medical Education (IME) Conference on Friday and Saturday, February 22 and 23, 2019. The IME Conference joins together a growing community of educators, leaders, scholars, and learners working together to promote change through innovation in health professions education. Our goal is to move education in the health professions toward a higher level of excellence and wellbeing by providing a forum for sharing innovative ideas and educational innovations.
We have prepared an exciting and stimulating program with an outstanding plenary speaker, Dr. Peter Katsufrakis, President and CEO of the National Board of Medical Examiners, and interactive conference workshops chosen to enhance participant skills related to teaching, leadership, educational scholarship, professional development, and promotion of wellbeing. Multiple oral presentations and poster sessions provide many opportunities for networking and collaboration in a friendly atmosphere. Download a registration flyer to post and share.
