Research

All residents are required to participate in a research project and/or quality improvement project each academic year.  Our goal is to have each resident present at a regional and a national conference.

Research Symposium 

This event is held annually in late May and early June allowing all residents to present their research in front of faculty and hospital staff

National Conferences 

It is a requirement for each resident to present on a national level by the end of their residency. Our residents have a strong presence at national conferences and have won many awards for their research projects. 

Publications

Publications are encouraged and our Director of Research, Serap Sobnosky, MD  will guide you through this process. Our project advisors and internal medicine faculty are available and eager to help every step of the way.

Care Access COVID Clinical Trial 

Select residents who met both internal and external criteria were allowed to participate in a phase 3 clinical research trial which focused on a new coronavirus monoclonal antibody drug during the height of the pandemic.  Many of our residents became sub-investigators due to this opportunity and they continue to work in this area of clinical research.
