It’s cold and nasty out, the days are short, and you’re sick of just about everything (unless, of course, you’re in the sunny part of the world)… Why not make plans to attend a medical conference this spring? No, it’s not quite like SCUBA diving in Belize or climbing the Kilimanjaro. But, contrary to your fantasy vacation, you might actually find that somebody else is willing to fund this trip for you. Use your CME funds wisely my friends…
I’ve been updating the Conferences Page and am amazed by the large number of meetings happening around the world this spring. Take a look at the list if you’re feeling down. And don’t forget that even if you can’t make it to #Resus14 or #CCME14, no matter where you are you can always participate in the conversation by visiting FOAMFeeds. Did you know that #AAEM14 started today?
