The IBMS
newsletter appeared in my inbox this morning:
Biomedical Science Day - Thank you
Thank
you to everyone that helped us to celebrate and promote our first
Biomedical Science Day. It was a huge success and we were overwhelmed by
the amount of responses we received.
We were inundated with messages of support on Facebook, Twitter and email. You sent us hundreds of images taken at work and home, with teams of biomedical science staff holding events in hospitals across the UK to promote their work.
We sent out over 600 posters, with the aim of raising public awareness,
some of which reached Finland, New Zealand, Kenya, Nigeria and Croatia.
Our social media posts were seen by an incredible 166,198 people!
Date for your diary - 19th July 2018
Same time next year. In the meantime, we will keep you updated with
information for next year's event and how you can get involved. Please
contact us with any suggestions you may have to help us promote and
celebrate the event to website@ibms.org

We love hearing about the amazing work of
our members, promoting biomedical science. If you have a story to tell
or an event that needs promoting please contact us at website@ibms.org
In my last
entry I wondered about “proper” CPD..
I don’t want to be disrespectful to the IBMS, but again I find myself
questioning the relevance of this newsletter to my daily round…
