The ReThink conference starts with big ideas, drawing from multiple disciplines - we invite you to join us and explore ways to implement these ideas. Our inspiration was to think innovatively and break away from a traditional discourse about clinical reasoning - for some of us that tradition is steeped in a post-positivist, cognitive psychology paradigm.
We recognized that a growing concern over rising rates of clinical error was a strong motivating factor for continued education and research on clinical reasoning. However, we also felt limited by what we already know and our own expertise. To break free from these bonds, we decided to create an inclusive space to re-define the problem and innovate new solutions.
On February 16th we will examine some new ideas from innovative thinkers and explore the complexities behind clinical reasoning. This is an opportunity to network with an international audience and share ideas with others who are passionate about clinical reasoning and improving equity in healthcare through knowledge translation and implementation science.
This is a joint program being offered by the McMaster Faculty of Health Sciences Office of Continuing Professional Development (Program for Faculty Development), and McMaster Education Research, Innovation, and Theory (MERIT).
