Do you want to be on the cutting edge of Emergency Medicine…but you don’t have enough time to keep up to date with the literature? Are you frustrated by conflicting evidence? If yes, then EBEM 11 is for you!

Our speakers do the work for you. All of the literature from the past 2 years relevant to EM has been reviewed, and only the evidence that will immediately change your practice is presented.

Everything is clinically based and presented using real cases. Each of the sessions are high impact, high yield discussions with clinical faculty who face the same challenges as you.
