Communication in a changing practice environment. Format The conference will be structured to facilitate an active exchange of ideas among participants. There will be one plenary session a day and most of the time will be spent in smaller groups. Paper Presentations and Workshops Participants are invited to submit abstracts for workshops and papers to be given during concurrent sessions. Conference organizers will group accepted abstracts by theme.
Posters regarding research on communication in medicine are also welcome.
These poster presentations will be on display throughout the conference, and will be reproduced in the conference report to provide an essential resource. This conference has an international scope and will be coordinated on both sides of the Atlantic. In Europe, it will be organized by Ethox - The Oxford Institute for Ethics and Communication in Health Care Practice. These groups coordinated the Oxford Conference and will work with an international network of associations in preparing for the 1999 Communication in Medicine conference. All rights reserved.
