The ADAM Summer School
The ADAM Summer School is a medical summer school, organized for medical students from all around the world. During the week we will combine an interesting educational experience with a fun social program!
The medical programme of the ADAM Summer School focuses on anesthesiology and acute medicine. You will attain practical skills through simulation, for which the practical sessions take place at the Simulation Center of the VU University medical center in Amsterdam. Not only will you be simulating, there will also be opportunities to develop other skills, such as performing intubations and coniotomies. Furthermore, you will visit inspiring lectures and workshops. After this course, you will be able to handle stressful situations in the operating theater and in the shock room. ADAM Summer School is all about practicing and learning: education through medical simulation!
Ever wanted to have lunch in the Vondelpark? Or make a city tour through Amsterdam? During the social programme, you will explore the beautiful capital Amsterdam! There is much to discover with the rich history, culture and nightlife that Amsterdam has to offer! Also, you will have plenty of opportunities to connect with your peers from all over the world. This all will make your ADAM experience unforgettable and worthwhile!
