patient partners
The International Congress on Academic Medicine (ICAM) is proud to support the inclusion of patient partners in the conversation around the future of medical education. At ICAM, we are committed to amplifying the voices of patients and ensuring their experiences shape the discussions on academic medicine, healthcare innovation, and research.
Empowering Patients in Medical Education
Patients provide invaluable insights that enrich medical education and drive better healthcare outcomes. By integrating patient perspectives into academic medicine, ICAM creates a platform for meaningful dialogue between patients, medical professionals, and educators. This inclusion ensures that medical advancements are aligned with the needs and experiences of those they serve.
