IFEM is International Fellowship in Emergency Medicine

Curriculum is available on the net shows the 24 month schedule. Candidates have option of spending a 4 weeks at George Washington University, USA as observers.

Faculty from GWU come down to India once a month for a week for academics. Rest of the time the local faculty coordinates the teaching.

The first batch of residents who completed their 2 year training recieved their certification at MIMS this month.

I met a very energetic 2nd year resident Dr. Lokeshwar who has been writing a blog for the past couple of years on EM at MIMS.
