UMLS Webcasts

The UMLS Webcasts give users the opportunity to learn more about the diverse products that make up the UMLS. Each Webcast is a 20-30 minute presentation, followed by a question-and-answer session. All Webcasts will begin at 2:00 pm ET unless otherwise indicated. Webcast announcements are also posted on the UMLS News Web page and the UMLS News RSS Feed.
