Annual Conference 2012
BCCGN’s third annual conference, Clinical genomics – the Good, the Bad and the Ugly was held on Friday 20th April 2012. Attending physicians received 6.25 CME credits.There were 178 delegates including family physicians and specialists (38%), many of whom travelled from outside the lower mainland. Also attending were health professionals, researchers and students. Feedback from delegates was very positive for the overall conference program.
Here’s some quotes from physicians who attended:-
“Just learning about what is happening in this field is hopeful. As Family Practitioners are slogging at the day to day stuff, knowing researchers are making great progress is heartening.”
“I knew zero about genetic testing and what was offered (before I came) so all was useful.”
“I have better ability to counsel patients on DTC genetic testing”
“I am better able to help patients decide how to get tested”
