Scholarly Activity
As a program, we have great interest in not only individual patient care but also furthering
the science of medicine on a global level. We strongly support research efforts amongst our
residents and are very proud of our residents’ research productivity. Every year, we organize
a Resident Research Forum where all residents can present their work to the hospital faculty as
a whole. This forum includes research work from all residency programs at our medical center,
with awards granted to the top performers. For this year, an amazing 32 presentations were
contributed from the Internal Medicine residency at our Resident Research Forum.
In addition, many of our residents have had research presented at regional or national meetings.
Over the past few academic years, our residents' scholarly work has been accepted and presented
at the following forums:
