The Brigham Board Review and Comprehensive Update in Endocrinology 2023 (CME VIDEOS)

In this convenient online video CME program, faculty cover key clinical subspecialty topics — adrenal, bone health and osteoporosis, cardiovascular endocrinology, diabetes, obesity, thyroid — in case-based discussions that will help improve competence and performance on board review and recertification exams, along with helping to enhance patient outcomes.
The Brigham Board Review and Comprehensive Update in Endocrinology is continuing medical education that will help you to:

Increase your overall knowledge of endocrine diseases
Identify and improve knowledge on clinical competence-based practice gaps
Correlate pathophysiology and pathobiologic principles with clinical presentations
Describe optimal therapeutic strategies, as well as their risks and benefits
Apply new knowledge and strategies to the board exam and in daily practice

Learning Objectives
