The radiology faculty is committed to fostering an environment of intellectual curiosity and such scholarly endeavors as clinical research. As a reflection, we have a resident research fund to give radiology residents the funds they need to perform and present clinical research. Radiology residents are required to complete at least one scholarly activity project under staff supervision during their training period. This experience must be documented in the resident's learning portfolio.
If the resident’s research project is accepted for presentation at a major radiology meeting, the radiology research fund will grant the time and expenses needed to attend after coordination with and approval by the program director. Each resident may make only one meeting presentation for any research project.
Many opportunities exist for scholarly activities, as well, including multidisciplinary, intra, or interdepartmental conferences, as well as case report presentations and involvement in departmental continuous quality improvement teams. |
