Finding Hopkins Colleagues Presenting at SGIM
As GIM members make plans to travel to Philadelphia for the SGIM 31st Annual Meeting in April, GIM Fellowship alumna Dr. Neda Ratanawongsa has shared a search strategy for identifying presentations of work by Hopkins colleagues on the SGIM website. Just follow the steps below:
1. Log on to the SGIM 31st Annual Meeting web pages at http:www.sgim.org/am08/index.htm
2. Locate the section at the left side of the page titled “Community of Science” and click on the option “COS Website.”
3. Either:
a) log in using your COS username and password; or,
b) click on the “Create a New Account” button to quickly register for an account.
4. At the “SGIM Electronic Submission” page, click on the words “Personalized Itinerary Builder” in the line titled “Attendee Tools.”
5. At the next screen, locate the list of options on the left side of the page under the heading “Personal Itinerary,” and click on “Advanced Search.”
6. On the Advanced Search screen, enter “Johns Hopkins” in the box labeled “Institutions.” Then, move to the bottom of the screen and click on the “Search for Submissions” button. (N.B.: Do not click on the “Find” button to the right of the Institutions box. Doing so will cause you to exclude some relevant items.)
7. At the following screen, locate the box near the top of the screen that reads “Display Submissions in sets of:” and choose “All” as the setting. Then click on the “Display “ button to the right of the settings option, and allow the screen to refresh.
8. Check the “Add/Remove” box to the left of each item in the list displayed. (N.B.: At the end of the listing, do not click the “Add to My Calendar” button.)
9. Click the “Save Itinerary Changes” button.
10. On the next page, click the “Print Short Itinerary” button. The screen will display the items in your listing.
11. Print and/or save (HTML) a copy of the listing.
Dr. Ratanawongsa notes that while you may not recognize the presenting author, there is a Hopkins co-author on the abstract. It is not possible to figure out who it is without going through each abstract individually.
