by SWME | March 26, 2015
SWME’s innovative online courses were highlighted in a recent PCMA article discussing how hybrid technology is solving many of the problems with face-to-face participation at medical conferences.
Through the use of technology, SWME has organized online courses that bring together healthcare professionals from across Latin America and organized webinars where cardiovascular experts across Asia could meet to discuss tobacco cessation in the region. Technology can be used to break down the barriers to the exchange of knowledge worldwide.
“Missing medical knowledge can be deadly,” Schenk said. “The ability to bring top-of-the-line medical education to doctors worldwide saves lives.”
