Anais da I Jornada de Medicina do Centro Universitário UNDB

Abstract

The first Medicine Day (JOMED), held on September 28th and 29th, was a milestone for the institution's course. With the crucial support of UNDB, especially senior management, the event had around 500 registrants and was moved to the Blue Tree hotel due to high demand. The success of JOMED was evidenced by the engagement of students, led by professor Cícero Newton, president of the event. The impeccable organization set a high standard for future initiatives, generating unprecedented visibility for the course, including on local television media. The interaction with other medical schools stood out, highlighting the event's mobilization capacity, with half of the registrants coming from courses in the interior of the state. Speakers, both local and external, presented the state of the art in their areas, demonstrating scientific excellence with clear and objective presentations. The charisma of the main speaker, professor Celmo Celeno Porto, was fundamental in attracting a large number of registrants, in addition to his exceptional interaction with the new generations. I JOMED established a high standard and generated expectations for its second edition, already being planned by the institution's members. The event was a success and left a significant mark for future journeys.
