Share Your Expertise with the Primary Care Community

The planning committee for the 57th Annual Primary Care Review invites faculty, fellows, residents, students, and community healthcare providers to submit abstracts for consideration. This week-long continuing medical education (CME) conference is a cornerstone event for primary care professionals across the Pacific Northwest and beyond.

We welcome proposals that offer practical, clinically relevant insights for a diverse audience of primary care providers, including physicians, advanced practice providers, pharmacists, and naturopaths. Attendees come from a variety of clinical settings, with representation from 15–20 states annually.

What We’re Looking For

We are seeking engaging, evidence-based sessions that provide attendees with clinical pearls they can apply immediately in practice. Sessions should be:

  • 60 minutes in length, with 10–15 minutes reserved for Q&A
  • Designed with interactive elements such as:
    • Case-based discussions (3 cases typically work well)
    • Literature reviews of 1–2 key articles with discussion
    • Co-presentations offering diverse perspectives

If you’re new to presenting or would like support in applying adult learning principles, we’re here to help—email us at cme@ohsu.edu for coaching and tips.

Who Can Submit

OHSU faculty, fellows, residents, and students (students must work with a faculty mentor or preceptor)

Community-based healthcare providers with an interest in primary care

Evaluation Criteria

Submissions will be reviewed based on:

  • Relevance to community-based primary care
  • Practical implications for clinical practice
  • Clarity and quality of learning objectives
  • Proposed session format and engagement strategy
