We are planning to run one webinar each month during March, May and June in this first series in 2021. Our first in this new series is on Tuesday 9 March. The SAMinars are open to all members of the multidisciplinary team who work in acute and general medicine. They provide the opportunity to discuss and debate current challenges and hot topics within acute medicine. They also offer a platform to the authors with the highest scoring ePosters from the 2020 SAMGlasgow virtual conference, enabling them to share their work widely with colleagues. We will be applying for 2 CPD points for each webinar to the Federation of Royal Colleges. The SAMinars are open to all members of the multidisciplinary team who work in acute and general medicine. Each is accredited for 2 CPD points. The SAMinars are FREE to attend for SAM members.
