providers can keep up with their continuing medical education needs and earn CME credit

from their homes and offices through UTMB-sponsored online CME activities. In response

to the burgeoning interest in CME on the Internet, the UTMB Office of Continuing Education is

pleased to present an ongoing series of high-quality, interactive CME activities that take full

 advantage of this exciting new medium. Thanks to unrestricted educational grants from

supporting companies, most of these activities are offered to participants free of charge.
