Welcome to the Northern Constellations 2021 Webpage!

Abstract Submission Portal is Now Open! 

Submission Deadline Extended: March 9, 2021

NOSM faculty have incredible expertise in the area of medical education and innovation. Consider presenting an educational session at Northern Constellations 2021 on April 30 & May 1, 2021 virtually and sharing your knowledge with your colleagues. 

Submit a proposal for a 45 minute virtual interactive Workshop and/or a 30-minute virtual Hallway Conversation.  An overall goal of Northern Constellations is to provide opportunities for faculty to further develop scholarly activities and presentation skill, a NOSM faculty member is required as the lead presenter for these sessions.

Workshops: Workshops focus on in-depth learning and skill development in one or more facets of faculty responsibilities.  At least 25% of the workshop should involve interactive learning and include time for faculty to share experiences and challenges.  It is important that attendees are provided with opportunities to assess their learning.  Collaborations involving faculty in multiple disciplines or divisions are encouraged.

Virtual Hallway Conversation: Networking is a big part of Northern Constellations and we strive to keep networking as a priority during this virtual world!  Join colleagues for an informal and unstructured conversation on a topic of interest. During 30-minute segments, between other sessions, one or two faculty facilitators will introduce the topic and start the conversation.  No need to sign up, participants can “drop in” and stay as long as they want: meet and chat with colleagues with similar interests; learn about new resources; connect with other participants, bounce off ideas and more.
