NEW THIS WEEK:
This week we will be trialing a new, interactive format with Dr. Walker’s talk. We will be using Poll Everywhere to facilitate this. During his talk, there will be several times during which we will ask the audience to respond via this link PollEV.com/mbobel754. You can also respond by texting “MBOBEL754” to 22333.
If this format works well, we will continue to integrate it into our weekly content. Additionally, we are actively working on securing CME credit for our weekly talks. More to come in the New Year!
