Held on 16 November 2009 at RIBA, 66 Portland Place, London W1B 1AD.
The closing date for abstracts was Monday 20th July 2009.
We invited submissions of abstracts concerned with researching medical education with a critical focus on questions asked, methods used, and implications for future research in two categories of presentation:
- Presentations in parallel sessions
This section is for researchers wishing to have a forum to present their work and receive feedback. Papers with a methodological focus would be especially welcome.
15 minutes is allowed for presentation with 5 minutes for comment and feedback.
- Presentations in doctoral session
This section is for colleagues undertaking doctoral study (PhD/EdDs) who would like the opportunity to discuss their work in progress - particularly their approach to conducting their research.
Abstracts of all accepted papers will appear in the background papers for the conference, and also on the ASME website.
