It has been 5 years since the inception of MEDICON and the conference has grown in popularity and magnitude with every edition. It has provided an unprecedented platform for young researchers and budding doctors, to show their contribution to research.
After completing
five editions successfully the iconic Medical Students’ conference MEDICON
moves north to the capital. We the organizing committee of MEDICON at
University College of Medical Sciences, Delhi and INFORMER are pleased to
announce MEDICON '13 in Delhi from April 11th to 14th, 2013.
This year the theme is “Education for the mind, Ethics for the soul”
Medical ethics is the basis for all that is noble about the profession and hence assumes a great place in the lives of all doctors and Medical Education forms the basis of all medical practice prevailing today. The issue in question is of “medical ethics” one of the hallmarks of one’s medical training, inculcated during one’s graduation in the form of the ceremonial Hippocratic Oath. At a time when the prevailing Medical Education system is plagued by certain ills and is subject to a lot cynicism, scrutiny and ridicule, it is only fit that this important issue be considered and steps taken to ensure that the illness can be nipped in the bud. It is on these central ideas of Medical Ethics and Medical Education, that MEDICON '13 will be based and would treat these all important issues as a platform to build on.
The four preconference workshops will be-
Writing a scientific paper,
Searching medical literature,
Theatre of the Oppressed, and
Basic life support skills.
