Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the call for proposals for the Generalists in Medical Education (TGME) annual conference.

Dates: Thursday, November 7, & Friday, November 8, 2024.

Location: Atlanta, GA at the Courtland Grand Hotel https://courtlandgrandhotel.com/

Theme: The Impact of Change in the Health Education Learning Environment.

The impact of change in the health education learning environment is profound, affecting both students and educators alike. Shifts in curriculum, teaching methodologies, technological integration, and societal demands all contribute to the evolving landscape of health education.

What changes can enhance students' understanding and application of health concepts? How are we currently promoting critical thinking skills and preparing learners for real-world challenges? In what ways does the adaptable learning environment foster educators' creativity and efficacy in delivering relevant and engaging content? How can health education institutions embrace change and innovation to better equip learners with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate the complexities of modern healthcare systems and promote individual and community well-being?

The Generalists in Medical Education conference is where health professions educators and students from across the United States gather to make connections, share ideas, grow professionally, and discover solutions to challenges in teaching and learning.

You are invited to submit a proposal for this year’s conference. It will provide a forum to share your educational research and innovations.

The Generalists in Medical Education offer a variety of proposal and presentation formats:

a) Round Table Discussions

b) Descriptive Sessions

c) Ignite Presentations

d) Panel Discussions

e) Problem-Solving Sessions

f) Skill Acquisition Sessions

To ensure a diverse program, an individual can only be lead author/presenter on one accepted proposal. However, individuals can be supporting authors on up to three accepted proposals.

More information, including a Proposal Tip Sheet, is available on the TGME website: https://thegeneralists.org/

Proposals must be submitted electronically no later than 11:59 pm EST on May 13, 2024.
