Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
I visited eight university hospitals in five different Asian countries in order to note how English clinical case presentations were managed and taught by non-native English speaking physicians and thereafter codified the data according to the norms of genre analysis for academic speech events. Based on those findings, I have published three peer-reviewed research papers during the research period, with two more in process, plus a book chapter due in late 2020. During the research period, I also performed eight international conference presentations in six different countries, seven domestic/international invited seminars, and established and coordinated the E. Asian Association of Medical English Teachers (EAMET) organization.
