AMEE is the International Association for Health Professions Education. This year the annual conference is on in Vienna, Austria from August 22 – 26. Each year – the AMEE Simulation Committee has a session in which 4 nominated papers are presented and judged. Leizl Nayahangan and Ross Scalese are on that committee and spoke to us about the event, the process and the papers.
