Indeed, it is the inspiration from Patient Safety leaders such as Dr Mayer that have provided the motivation to create a platform such as ICGRx. I am excited that PSMF will be working with ICGRx as a key partner to prioritise patient safety among students, trainees, clinicians, patients, leaders and wider stakeholders.

About International Collaborative Grand Rounds (ICGRx):
“ICGRx” (International Collaborative Grand Rounds) hosted the world’s first Global Grand Round in 2016, revolutionising the age old tradition of Grand Rounds by harnessing the power of technology to share knowledge globally and improve healthcare. We believe sharing knowledge across healthcare professionals, students, academics, patients and stakeholders has never been more important, particularly at a time where a pandemic is disrupting society.The ICGRx team creates free, open access global live experiences bringing together experts as well as healthcare students, professionals, patients and stakeholders to discuss important topics in healthcare and share best practices to improve health outcomes.
On Sunday, June 28th, 2020 we will host the inaugural ICGRx summit featuring international panels discussing important topics, such as health education, medical technology, innovation, gender disparities in medicine, diversity in healthcare, society’s response to COVID-19, and prioritising patient safety. We hope that these global open access discussions will encourage international collaboration to share knowledge and improve global health.
