European Board of Internal Medicine (EBIM)
Current Members (2006): Chairman Stefan Lindgren(SWE), Colin Semple(UK), John Kellett(IE), Nina Weis(DK). Daniel Sereni(FR), Runolfur Palsson(ICE)
In 2003 there was formal agreement to set up a European Board of Internal medicine by EFIM and UEMS as laid down in the EU regulations. This has the primary objective of developing a European Diploma in Internal Medicine, as has been successfully achieved by other sub-specialties such as cardiology and urology. In addition the Board has responsibilities for:
- CPD/CME
- Requirements/evaluation of optimal training and training programmes in institutions.
