The Internet Medical Products Guide at http://impg.medmarket.com/home.htm by MedMarket provides a searchable list of companies and medical products . The guide is intended as a resource for health care professionals, providing them with an efficient tool for obtaining up-to-date information on the latest products and services. Including Operating Room products, Home Care Products, Physician Office products, In-Patient Products, and products for Clinical Testing. There is also a Directory of Medical Product Manufacturers/Suppliers at http://www.medmarket.com/indexes/ix1.html, which is divided into: Biotech , Diagnostic, Medical Device and Pharmaceutical sections.

Internet databases can locate medical conferences by region, topic, and date. Because physicians often plan a holiday around a conference, an available and up-to-date resource allowing them to search for events on a particular topic to take place in Florida during the summer, for example, can be terrifically valuable.

Doctors can plan which conferences to attend to enhance their continuing education with www.medicalconferences.com. This allows you to search for the conference most suited to your educational needs by title, date, location and keywords. You can also search selected conferences for details of main topics, keynote speakers, specialist workshops, social programmes and deadlines for Call for Papers. It’s also possible to register on-line for instant registration and an immediate response! MediConf® (www.mediconf.com/mcnfnext.html) also provides a searchable database of international conferences.

These sites are primarily for conferences abroad. You can search for information about medical conferences and meetings in India, at http://www.healthlibrary.com/databases/conference.htm. This site also allows you to add information about upcoming medical conferences to be held in India online, so that you can let others know about meetings you have planned, in order to increase attendance.
