- FOAMed quite simply stands for Free Open Access Medical Education
- It might be easier to get a couple of misnomers out of the way right off the bat:
- FOAM IS NOT Social Media (Twitter, FaceBook, Google+, etc…)
- FOAM IS NOT a Teaching Philosophy
- FOAM IS independent of platform or media (Blogs, Podcasts, Videocasts, etc…)
- FOAM IS an interactive collaboration of like minded individuals, free of geographic hindrances and time zones, with one single goal…to make the world of medicine better.
- Quite simply, FOAM is the concept, FOAMed is the conversation
