Duke University Medical Center Associate Professor of Medicine Daniella Zipkin is a recipient of two grants for Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) research and an advocate for the EBM movement. In order to help EBM educators and leaders enhance their skills, Daniella Zipkin’s university campus in Durham, North Carolina, will host the annual Teaching and Leading EBM workshop in April 2015.
EBM integrates research evidence with clinical expertise and patient values in order to provide patients with quality care that suits their best interests. Under the EBM framework, medical providers and physicians care for patients using the most recent, relevant research data, diagnostic tests, and treatments available with a focus on serving each patient as an individual.
Scheduled for April 7-10, 2015, the Teaching and Leading EBM workshop will allow educators and leaders to practice EBM skills and develop the skills required to effectively train staff on EBM procedures. In addition, participants will receive access to a variety of resources and the opportunity to network with other EBM educators and leaders. Each session will involve a combination of group discussions, case-based studies, and interactive lectures. Active and assigned course work makes up approximately 36 hours of the four-day workshop.
In order to attend, participants must pay a one-time tuition fee of $1,780 for Duke University staff, faculty, and chief residents of any institution, or $1,980 for non-Duke participants. Participants may also arrange for hotel rooms and transportation to and from the designated hotel through the workshop’s registration website.
