8th international conference of Czech and Slovak faculties of medicine, focused on e-learning and medical informatics in the education of medical disciplines.
November 26-27, 2014, Brno, Czech Republic
The MEFANET 2014 conference is focused on progress in ICT-based education of medical disciplines. The 8th year of the conference is a continuation of very successful and productive conferences MEFANET 2007, MEFANET 2008, MEFANET 2009, MEFANET 2010, MEFANET 2011, MEFANET 2012 and MEFANET 2013, where representatives of all Czech and Slovak medical faculties could discuss specific topics. The conference provides an opportunity to medicine teachers and students to meet medical informatics professionals, as well as experts involved in the multimedia support of education. Apart from general topics, such as e-learning, telemedicine and modern ICT, the 8th year of the conference is focused particularly on mLearning and mHealth into medical education.
Reports on teachers' experience are particularly welcome, as teachers are not only primary users of these electronic tools, but also authors of specific educational works, and often even developers of technology and software solutions. Apart from reports on clinical disciplines, contributions of ICT professionals and data analysts are also anticipated. The conference will provide enough space for educational seminars focused on the methodology of e-courses creation, as well as data formats and standards used in medical informatics. The conference programme is flexible: in addition to standard sections and presentations, discussion panels can be initiated, focused on possible problematic issues.
