Educational Conferences
Clinical conferences, case discussions, didactic lectures, grand rounds, and pathology conferences are included in the weekly meeting schedule. In addition, tumor board, perinatal board, and journal club are held on a monthly basis. Each year, several visiting professors from medical schools and teaching hospitals throughout the United States participate in the teaching program by spending one week conducting approximately 10 hours of lectures and discussions with the residents. During scheduled teaching sessions with the visiting professor, most residents are released from all but emergency duties. This is true for regular teaching sessions as well.
The residents are extensively involved in the teaching, training, and evaluation of medical students.
