SOS - Symposia On Symptomatology by PiE - Platform for Intelligent Edutainment.
Symposia On Symptomatology (SOS) has been a unique medical learning experience for doctors and medical students of Mumbai. Held over 3 sessions in 2015, it aims to re-stress the contribution of medical symptomatology in accurate diagnosis.
Organised by PiE - Platform for Intelligent Edutainment, it features multiple short talks by internist Dr Tushar Shah and paediatrician Dr Tushar Maniar.
Each session also includes an exercise in 'learning through games'. A 'Symptomatology Housie' (Bingo) was an example of the same.
The sessions also feature 3 MasterClasses by senior clinicians.
Another novel introduction is 'homework' to all delegates after each session. Thus, 'SOS Crossword' and 'Symptomatology Rhymes' contributed to the entertainment part of 'edutainment' provided.
SOS #1 - held on 25th October 2015 - St. Andrew's Auditorium Bandra.
