Recent Resident Scholarly Work

 

We encourage our residents to participate in scholarly projects. Many of our residents have had their work accepted for publication, and they have a large number of works in progress.  Several residents have presented work at national and regional meetings. Faculty members work with residents to develop the clinical inquiry skills need to flourish in the rapidly changing medical industry.

 

Below are several examples of our residents’ scholarly work since 2008.
