15th Annual IAMSE Meeting - Science Education in a Medical Curriculum: Teaching Science to Training Scientists?
Plenary Session Highlight!
Science Education in a Medical Curriculum: Teaching Science or Training Scientists?
Presented by: Friedo Dekker, Leiden University Medical Center, The Netherlands
Medical students deserve proper education in which science plays a central role. Traditionally basic sciences like anatomy, physiology, and pathology are a firm basis of a medical curriculum, with a growing share of a molecular approach. However, to what extent does this teaching contribute to scientific thinking in medical students? Do we really train scientists? Should we train scientists among these students anyway? In this presentation we will explore different aims and means of scientific education. Some Dutch experiences will be shared, and results in terms of scientific output of medical students will be presented.
March 1st is the submission deadline for the Call for Poster Abstracts for the 15th Annual IAMSE Meeting. We encourage you to submit your abstract illustrating how your institution is addressing this topic. We offer a special discounted rate for student participation at the meeting.
For additional details regarding abstract submission, meeting registration or session topics, please visit the website at http://www.iamseconference.org
We look forward to seeing you in St. Petersburg Florida, June 18-21, 2011

Education for a Digital World - 15th Annual IAMSE Meeting
This year as the 2011 Program Committee planned the sessions for the 15th Annual meeting they developed four thematic areas. The first of these is Education for a Digital World. This theme will be highlighted in the plenary session - "Use of Simulation to Access Competencies and Improve Healthcare"
This presentation will address six goals:
1. Competence evaluation and transfer of training from the simulation education laboratory to patient care settings;
2. Describe healthcare education translational science;
3. Identify features of rigorous simulation-based (S-B) healthcare education;
4. Interpret data from selected research studies on S-B transfer of training;
5. Present the big S-B education picture via meta-analysis;
6. Coda: effective S-B education interventions, lessons learned, research opportunities, productive academic teams.
The Program Committee encourages you to submit your poster abstract demonstrating how your institution is currently addressing this topic! The submission deadline is March 1, 2011

Call for Conference Sessions
15th Annual IAMSE Conference
“Building Healthcare Professionals in a Medical Science Curriculum”
Dear Collegues
The International Association of Medical Science Educators (IAMSE) is pleased to announce the call for Conference Focus Sessions and Conference Workshops for the 15th Annual IAMSE Conference to be held in St. Petersburg, Florida, USA from June 18-21, 2011. All proposals must be submitted in the format requested in the attached proposal submission forms. Please take care to use the proper form as both workshop and focus session forms are attached to this email. Submission deadline is October 30, 2010. Please submit to julie@iamse.org
Concurrent Focus Session: The purpose of a 90-minute Concurrent Focus Session is to “focus in” on a specific topic in small group discussion format. The goal is for groups of 10-50 individuals to discuss and exchange ideas on a particular topic of general interest and relevance to medical sciences education, with the aim of providing a focused, complete, interactive and competence-building learning experience. Methods can be variable but should be interactive.
Conference Workshops: The purpose of a 3-hour Conference Workshop is to delve into a topic of general interest and relevance to medical sciences education and/or to develop a skill in greater depth than would be permitted in a Focus Session. These sessions of 10-50 participants will be held concurrently with focus sessions and other workshops. Methods can be variable but should be interactive.
This conference will explore issues in the teaching and learning of sciences fundamental to practice in all health professions. The IAMSE annual meeting provides medical science educators a place to meet colleagues from around the world and to receive an intense faculty development experience.
