A Note from Ms. Shirlene Rogers:
Your Satellite Site Liaison

As a CME Outfitters Satellite Site, you are already signed up for our two LIVE CE activities in October, but there is still time to get a group together if you have not already done so.

“From Paper to Patient: Applying Clinical Literature to Practice Improvements (Part 1) Evidence-Based Medicine: Rationale and Conceptual Framework”, our live satellite broadcast takes place Wednesday, October 10, 2007, at 12:00 p.m.-1:00 p.m. ET with a taped re-air at 3:00 p.m.- 4:00 p.m. ET.

Are your current practice habits based on the best available evidence? Are you comfortable translating clinical trial data into meaningful changes that benefit your patients? Mastering these translational skills can be a significant step toward optimal outcomes in clinical care. Mark your calendars for this special neuroscienceCME TV broadcast on researching, evaluating, and utilizing evidence-based medicine in your clinical setting.

Moderator Stephen J. Bartels, MD, will be joined by faculty member Sharon Mozian, MD.

In November we will be presenting two LIVE and interactive CE activities—on November 7, 2007, “Atypicals in Practice: Case Studies on Switching”, and on November 14, 2007, the second part of the October 10th activity, “From Paper to Patient: Applying Clinical Literature to Practice Improvements (Part 2) Evidence-Based Medicine: Application of Principles to Practice”.

Whether your site participates via your CME Outfitters provided satellite, or via the phone or web, you will have a first-hand opportunity to interact directly with these prestigious experts.

If you are able to assemble a group of 10 or more clinicians to participate in the activity, we will mail you and your team pizza certificates to use during our LIVE broadcast. Call me at at 877.CME.PROS to register your clinicians.
