Upcoming Conference: Industry-Funded CME

Message from our esteemed colleague, Dr. Adriane Fugh-Berman of PharmedOut fame:


Please help us publicize our conference, "Prescription for Conflict:
Should Industry Fund Continuing Medical Education?" This is an issue that is critical to patients, providers and health care systems. While our primary audience is physicians, nurses, and other health care providers (6 CEU credits are available, and 5 CME credits are pending), it will be of interest to diverse groups, including educators, regulators, policymakers, ethicists, consumer activists, and students.
Our conference website for has just been updated. We have a new flyer , suitable for posting, available at http://www.pharmedout.org/RxforConflictFlyer1pg.pdf ; the updated agenda is at http://www.pharmedout.org/conferenceagenda.htm.
Thank you!
