Established in 1992 by the UCLA Center for Prehospital Care, the Prehospital Care Research Forum at UCLA is dedicated to the promotion, education, and dissemination of prehospital research.
Despite numerous technological and scientific advances, EMS still lacks a unique volume of research for a solid scientific foundation. As a result, EMS clinicians, educators, and administrators often make decisions by trial and error. The Prehospital Care Research Forum at UCLA believes that it is the responsibility of emergency medical professionals worldwide to build a body of evidence to examine prehospital emergency care.
International Scientific Symposium: Oct. 14-18, 2019
The Prehospital Care Research Forum and EMS World are proud to present the 2019 International Scientific Symposium at EMS EXPO. October 14-18, 2019 in New Orleans, Louisiana.
This robust scientific program aims to highlight the most important EMS research of the year from across the globe. EMS providers at all levels present original peer-reviewed posters and oral abstract sessions.
Researchers: Please support each other by attending all of the International Scientific Symposium sessions and ask questions. Full schedule details for the 2018 Symposium are here. Check out the 2018 abstracts published in EMS World here.
