Educational Lecture Series

WMS has developed an educational lecture series to help physicians and allied healthcare professionals teach topics in wilderness medicine. Each lecture contains more than seventy images and is accompanied by an explanatory text and study guide. The topics were developed by members of the Wilderness Medical Society who are experts in their field. The information presented is accurate and current.

These lectures are suited for a broad range of audiences, including physicians, residents, and medical students. The series is also instructive for pre hospital personnel, emergency medical technicians, Wilderness First Responders, and other allied health professionals.

The topics include: Accidental Hypothermia, Biodiversity and Human Health, Diarrhea from Foreign and Wilderness Travel, Field Water Infection, Frostbite and Other Cold Injuries, Hazardous Marine Life, High Altitude Medicine, Orthopedic Trauma, Wilderness Dermatology, Venomous Snakebite Management, and Wild Animal Attacks.
