Letter
from the Director of Continuing Medical Education:
Your
CME experience at Wills will be even better this year, thanks to
recent upgrades of A-V equipment in the Simmonds auditorium. A new
screen and digital projector have been installed thanks to an
educational grant from NEC corporation. The state of the art NEC
GT5000 projector provides a much brighter (6000 ansi lumens) image
that enhances digital presentations, which have nearly totally
replaced slides. The quality, expertise and dedication of our
faculty remains the same, as ever.
Our
Saturday morning updates remain free and refreshments are provided.
If you park on the roof of the Walnut Towers Garage you can enter
the hospital directly on the 7th floor. The auditorium and library
are one flight up on eight. Stamp your ticket in the 7th floor
parking lobby for discounted parking.
Exciting
developments this year include a downtown venue and new format for
the Wills Eye Hospital Annual Conference that will focus on
practical information for the busy practitioner.
We
continue to offer CME credits for Grand Rounds on most Fridays at
7 am. The format remains the same: unknown case presentations with
audience participation capped by short talks that stress important
clinical points. Early risers are urged to attend. Its
definitely my favorite conference.
The
Wills Annual Ophthalmology Review Course remains the largest and
most popular in the United States. Practitioners who desire an
intense, comprehensive update of Ophthalmology and need CME
credits for licensure should consider taking the course. They can
earn 45 credits in 5 days.
We
look forward to seeing you at Wills.
