The 53rd MCW/Marquette Medical Alumni Association Clinical Conference 2019
The majority of MCW’s physician-alumni base practice medicine in private practice and are far removed from academic medical center happenings. With every passing year, institutions are finding innovative ways of educating the next generation of health care providers and finding new approaches to patient care delivery. We, as an institution of academic medicine, must serve as a resource to inspire lifelong learning amongst our alumni constituencies and provide perspective for gaining new knowledge.
The clinical conference covers a wide range of clinical topics with an emphasis on recent developments in patient care. This conference is designed specifically to meet the continuing educational needs of Medical College of Wisconsin/Marquette Medical alumni.
As an institution of learning, it is important to offer opportunities for learners during all stages of their careers. This clinical conference is an ideal avenue for them to gain awareness, astute knowledge of specific topics and learn things they can utilize in practice and at home.
