Dear Congressists,

We reached the end of the 1st Virtual Congress of General and Familiy Medicine. There are online the words of close, uttered by the President and Vice president of the Congress, and of the Coordinators of the Scientific Committe and Organizing Committee.

From today any more inscriptions will not be accepted in the Congress.
A questionnaire is published from today, in order to collect the congress participants’ opinion. Please answer it here and receive as soon as possible the digital Certificate of Attendance of the Virtual Congress.

During this week, we will announce the scientific award winners.

Let's maintain up to September of 2008, the date of the formal announcement of the 2nd Virtual Congress of General and Familiar Medicine, the scientific content of the congress.

We finished the publication of the module "Virtual Lunch" and in his substitution it is possible now to carry out the download of all who were published.

Up to 30 of June the forum of discussion will be active. We would like maintaining the forum for besides this date, but the informatics pirates’ constant attacks, what demands a constant vigilance of the same thing, obstructs his continuation, given that this moderation is carried out by the commission computer science, which is going to enjoy oneself on a few deserved holidays.

We promise to return in September, with new page already formatted for the 2nd Virtual Congress of General and Familiar Medicine.

See you soon,

Fernando Santos.

 On July 2nd started the Virtual Workshop entitled "One Size Does Not Fit All" at the Bochum Checklist forum, available in the Discussion Forum. 

 The authors, Dr. Sandra Feliciano and Prof. Hans-Martin Sass, will launch different questions and clinical cases to be solved and discussed with the participants of the virtual workshop, that is accessible to all the congress participants.

  The final goal of this workshop is to enable a better knowledge and use of the clinical-ethics checklist, known as Bochum Checklist, by General Practitioners.
