Great 3 days at #AMEE2023 loads to reflect on and apply. Good to connect with @DrKwangCham and others. It would be fantastic to see more #optometry academics at future conferences, we have plenty to learn from the wider HPE community and plenty to contribute #optometryeducation
Fantastic first day at #AMEE2023 finished with a thought provoking Symposium on AI and Health Professions Education. Couldn't agree more that we need to think about AI Education not only how it is used in Education.

Such a great evening in the CBB, recognising and thanking five colleagues who retired from teaching in our clinics and classes over the past couple of years. Better them, they have about 150 years with us @UoMPharmaOpt
Thanks to @claireEmallon for all the organisation.
