Rheumatology 2024

medical meeting

Date: October 20-21 

 

Conference Description

This Medical Conference is designed to provide physicians,scientists, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, as well as out-of-hospital providers who see patients that need medical care, with evidence-based information on a variety of Medicine dilemmas. A wide variety of topics pertinent to the practice of the medical care provider will be presented in lectures, case presentations, and interactive sessions.

The goal of this conference is to present current clinical data on key issues in medicine, along with treatment options to manage these challenges. Topics for this year’s conference have been selected based on extensive target audience needs assessment data resulting from professional practice gaps. These gaps are identified by a variety of sources including feedback and evaluations from past participants, clinical expert input, online survey, and other medical and nursing data.

An outstanding faculty has been selected based on their individual areas of expertise, their ability to communicate first-hand knowledge to others, and their commitment to address issues of current concern to attendees.

Conference Objectives

After participating in this conference, you should have an increased knowledge of, and be more competent to…

• Identify and treat special medical conditions

• Use appropriate clinical interventions in the management of serious medical conditions

• Better use lab tests to augment history and physical exam in evaluating the patient

• Apply the most up-to-date information

Speaking Opportunities

Our conference programmes are painstakingly researched over a period of months, ensuring that the agendas are always leading-edge, covering only those issues that matter to the marketplace. The speaker faculty is populated by individuals and organisations recommended to us by the market as leaders in their field.

Speaking at an NBScience event presents a unique platform from which to showcase the expertise of a high-profile representative from your organisation.

Speaking Can Involve:

A speaking slot on the conference agenda – a powerful platform from which to showcase the medical industry and knowledge and abilities of an expert in your organisation
Chairmanship of a conference session – a great way of aligning yourself with a high profile panel of medical industry experts
Involvement in an medical industry panel discussion as a panellist or chairperson – a chance to engage in industry-critical debate with market leading executives
Leading a one-day workshop before or after the medical conference – a more in-depth opportunity of demonstrating your expertise to a smaller, more focused group of individuals with specific needs and problems
