Description
The Bristol Myers Squibb Foundation’s Independent Medical Education (IME) Request for Education (RFE) program invites proposals to develop and implement educational initiatives for healthcare professionals. The program is designed to address independently verified educational needs in specific therapeutic areas, with new RFEs announced periodically throughout the year. Current open RFEs include topics such as systemic lupus erythematosus, stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation (AF) and secondary stroke prevention (SSP), and novel immunomodulators for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). The aim is to close professional practice gaps and improve patient outcomes through evidence-based, interactive, and innovative educational programming.
