ASME NEWSLETTER | September 2012
Annual Scien�fic Mee�ng 2012 by Claire Cunningham
Don’t forget about the Chair’s
Challenge 2012!
Many of you picked up a Miller’s
Pyramid© recently at one of the
events we a)ended to use as a
teaching tool for didac�c

Email us at [email protected]

Edinburgh—a prize worth around
£425!
A4er a hec�c Fes�val �me in Edinburgh and
the thrill of the Olympics and Paralympics,
our ASM seems a life�me ago.
Having started in the role of Communica�on
and Marke�ng Officer at ASME in late June, I
was plunged right in at the deep end when it
came to a)ending the ASM. It was a busy
few days but very produc�ve: pu<ng faces
to names; gaining be)er understanding of
ASME and each of the Special Interest
Groups.
The Mee�ng was well a)ended and
feedback was extremely posi�ve, especially
with regards to the quality of the workshops
and the research presented. Other posi�ve
feedback included “holding the welcome
drinks in the museum was inspired.” Our
App was also well received as it gave you
the opportunity to view the programme and
i�nerary at the touch of a bu)on.
Technology had a strong presence through-
out the Mee�ng from the Wi-Fi availability
and focus on social media to our sharp
increase in Twi)er followers.
This reflects the fact that Medical Educa�on
and Social Media do go hand in hand. If you
haven't followed us
yet, please do
@asmeofficial.
The ASM also offered
us the opportunity to
celebrate our 55th Anniversary. This was
marked by a special cake at the Chair’s
Drinks Recep�on held on the Tuesday night.
I look forward to next year’s Mee�ng at
Edinburgh Napier University and hope to see
you there!
