Content:
One of the goals of biomedical informatics is to enable physicians to easily access and use the latest medical research discoveries. My Cancer Genome is a web-based knowledge resource created to help physicians, researchers, and patients understand the implications of tumor genetic mutations for cancer treatment. In my talk, I will explain My Cancer Genome and set it in the context of personalized medicine, biomedical informatics, and the care of cancer patients.
When it's time to complete ERAS, you'll want to be able to list a Scientific Monograph. The perfect opportunity for this is an article on an innovation in medical education. There are a number of outlets, but check out the following:"Medical Education Monographs" are articles on a specific subject of general interest to medical educators. Many of the submissions will be reviews of topics of general interest or "how to" papers (i.e. professionalism education, research methods in education, lecture techniques). The length of a monograph will be dependent on the determination of the authors of the needed length to adequately cover their subject but may be shortened on review. "Monographs" will be published twice per year (March and October) as a supplement to the Journal of the International Association of Medical Science Educators (JIAMSE) along with "Innovations in Medical Education." Two or more monographs will be published per issue. The deadlines for submitting manuscripts for review will be February 1 and September 1 of each year.Interested parties should submit a one-page description of a proposed monograph to the Editor-in-Chief of JIAMSE, Dr. Peter de Jong, If suitable, an invitation to submit a full manuscript will be issued.
