At the conclusion of the sessions, the participants should be able to:

• Appraise new subspecialty guidelines relevant to internal medicine and pediatrics and incorporate them into practice.
• Improve interdisciplinary medical care by evaluating treatment strategies for specific disease entities and identifying mechanisms to implement appropriate policy changes.
• Apply recommendations for evaluating and managing clinical care problems, particularly those of children with chronic childhood conditions who are transitioning to adult medical care.
• Design educational opportunities to advance the career development of medicine-pediatrics practitioners.
