New York City Poison Center Consultants' Conference
June 2023

Consultants' Conference is a monthly meeting attended by medical toxicologists, emergency physicians, pharmacists and other learners from all over the Northeast. It is an educational activity in which the Consultants (renowned experts in various medical specialties) provide insight into the analysis and approach to the diagnosis and treatment of interesting toxicologic cases. The cases are presented mostly by the NYU Toxicology fellows in training, but anyone can present their case if deemed appropriate. Learners of all levels can benefit from the rich and often dynamic discourse.

The next NYC Poison Center Grand Rounds and Consultants' Conference will be held on June 1, 2023. Grand Rounds will start at 1PM EST and Consultants' Conference will follow immediately. The topic and speaker will be:

Fomepizole for Acetaminophen Toxicity - Friend or Foe?

Senior Fellow in Medical Toxicology
The Ronald O. Perelman Department of Emergency Medicine
NYU Grossman School of Medicine

Consultants' Conference will take place from 2 PM - 4 PM EST.
