Late last year I presented a paper at this conference, which was in my 
opinion an excellent conference as well an exceptional opportunity to 
hear a large range of views/opinions from a variety of disciplines 
including of course those for whom the 'bottom line' applies - the 
patients. The med students also conducted an excellent skit. Please note 
that the conference is a valuable tool for everyone. While the survey is 
intended for past participants, you may view for further information:

>We invite you to respond to a survey about research and evaluation of efforts to include the patient's* voice in health professional education. The survey's creation was inspired by recommendations made by conference working groups, and its' intended outcomes are to build a shared database of information and resources and to encourage networking and collaboration among those interested in this topic.

>
>- evaluation of students' and learners' knowledge, skills and/or attitudes

>
