We designed this conference hosted on Twitter based on successful models in other disciplines, and we are very excited to introduce this format to medical education. We hope you take this opportunity to share your scholarship with the international medical education community in this new way.
We hope you will be a part of the first one in medical education. Join us with the hashtag: #MCGConf2021PIF
