Results obtained for all 3 RIPLS subscales showed overall significant improvements in scores, indicating that the 9 th SMEC 2013 was effective in improving the attitudes of Singaporean healthcare students towards IPE. As the 9 th SMEC 2013 was one of the few healthcare conferences that are organised for students, by students, the results of this study suggest that student-run initiatives can be highly effective in improving attitudes towards IPE. Our study found that participation in a student-led jointly-organised conference event was effective in improving medical and nursing students' improve attitudes towards IPE. ./cache/cord-330318-2v2exya7.txt ./txt/cord-330318-2v2exya7.txt
