August WMIG Meeting

Join us at noon on August 27th in MN-263 for WMIG's first meeting of the year.
Dr. Rebecca Bowers from the department of Emergency Medicine and our faculty sponsor will be speaking to us. She will give a little introduction to Wilderness Medicine and how it relates to one's practice. Then she will explain the Advanced Wilderness Life Support (AWLS) certification which she completed this summer (I did too, see previous post). After that, she will give us a lecture on land envenomations!
Come learn a little about UK's Wilderness Medicine Interest Group and how you can make enjoying the outdoors a part of your practice. Lunch will be provided. Also, yearly dues are $15 for those interested in joining.

Please RSVP by Tuesday (August 25) to Stacey Gutman at slgutm2@uky.edu
