Please join us for the 108th session in our series “Changing the Way We Work” on Friday, May 22, 2026! In this session, we will share an update on the Hantavirus and any circulating infectious diseases. We will also explore practical, evidence-informed strategies for post–myocardial infarction (MI) care in family practice, including an overview of a newly developed clinical pathway to support patient management and follow-up. The main program will be held from 7:55-9 a.m., with a possible extension until 9:15 a.m. for additional Q&A.
