The symposium featured Mohamed Othman, a fourth-year student in Critical Care Technology and Anesthesia, who enriched the discussion with an engaging presentation supported by explanatory videos. The event concluded with a strong emphasis on the importance of verifying the accuracy and sources of information, highlighting the critical role of reliable information in the digital era.
