There's a list out there called Soji's list. Who's Soji? If you visit the website, it says: "Chief Soji, MD is not a real person, don't bother looking us up. We are US-trained industry physicians giving just a little back."Follow @DrJosephKim on Twitter.

In the world of medical education, there is a huge difference between certified CME vs. non-certified promotional medical education. Are you familiar with the differences? If you're somewhat rusty and you'd like to gain some expertise in this area, I encourage you to enroll and participate in the National Faculty Education Initiative (NFEI). You won't become an expert overnight, but you can consider this a "basics" course that will outline the differences between certified CME and other types of medical education. The National Faculty Education Initiative (NFEI) provides online training on the differences between Certified CME and Promotional Activities, as well as a searchable database of medical education faculty who have completed the program.Click here for more information about the National Faculty Education Initiative (NFEI).

Do you consider yourself to be a technology expert? How strong are your computer skills? Do you feel lost if you're sitting with a group of computer engineers, developers, programmers who start talking about work-related issues? Maybe that's when you fire up your smartphone and jump to CNN Business so that you can see what's going on in the technology sector. Follow @DrJosephKim on Twitter.
