My thesis in 180 seconds
As part of the Interdisciplinary Health Conference 2018, one of MedCamer’s goals is to promote scientific research in medicine and to introduce young doctors to scientific communication. On this occasion, MedCamer awards a prize of 100,000 CFA francs to the winner of the “My Thesis in 180 seconds” competition. This competition will allow medical doctors students and residents to present their research topic iin plain language, to a non- specialist audience and a jury. The challenge is to make a scientific topic easily understandable in clear, concise and convincing French or English – and with the help of only one slide.
Potential candidates are:
- Medical students preparing a thesis
- Recently graduated medical doctors (<1 year)
- Residents / Interns who prepare their specialist degree
- Physicians having recently obtained their specialist title (<1 year).
Each candidate will have to give, in three minutes, a clear, concise and convincing presentation, on a static slide (no animation, no transition, no ‘movement’ of any form). The slide should be presented at the beginning of the presentation. The candidate will not have any electronic media (audio and video files …), nor additional accessories (costumes, musical instruments, laboratory equipment).
The decision of the arbitration panel will be final and without appeal.
Deadline for registration (thesis title and abstract): February 28, 2018
Public Presentations: March 23 and 24, 2018
