Diagnostics
Mark E. Sobel, MD, PhD, Director of Journal CME Programs
Participants of the
JMD CME Program in Molecular Diagnostics should be able to
demonstrate an increase in, or confirmation of, their knowledge of
the latest advances in molecular diagnosis and prognosis and understanding
of molecular pathogenesis of disease after reviewing specific articles in
The Journal of
Molecular Diagnostics (JMD).
This program is
specifically developed for trainees, clinicians and researchers interested
in the molecular basis of disease and the application of nucleic acid and
protein assays for diagnostic and prognostic analysis of disease.
CME
Accreditation Statement:
This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the
Essential Areas and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing
Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint sponsorship of the Federation of
American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) and the American Society
for Investigative Pathology (ASIP). FASEB is accredited by the ACCME to
provide continuing medical education for physicians.
FASEB designates this educational activity for a maximum of 50 AMA PRA
Category 1 Credit(s)TM. Physicians should only claim credit
commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
To receive credit for this journal-based CME activity, participants must
answer questions based on selected articles in Volume 10 of The Journal
of Molecular Diagnostics (calendar year 2008) and achieve a cumulative
score of at least 75% (correct answers to at least 38 of the 50 questions in
the annual program) in addition to completing an evaluation form.
Disclosure Policy: The
Federation requires that participants of FASEB-sponsored educational
programs be informed of an author’s academic and professional affiliation
and the existence of any significant financial interest or other
relationship with the manufacturer(s) of any commercial product(s) mentioned
in the educational activity. This policy allows the reader to be fully
knowledgeable in evaluating the information being presented. Disclosure
includes any relationship that may bias one’s representation or which, if
known, could give the perception of bias. The Journal of Molecular
Diagnostics requires that authors certify any affiliations (e.g.,
employment, consultancies, stock ownership, honoraria, expert testimony)
with any organization or entity with a direct financial interest in the
subject matter or materials discussed in the article. Any such disclosures
shall be indicated on the question sheets for this continuing medical
education journal program.
