Monthly Grand Rounds in Med-Peds focus on disease entities which span the ages. Recent discussions include allergy treatments among children and adults, obstructive sleep apnea, HIV treatment during pregnancy and the neonatal period, treatment and understanding of congenital heart diseases in adulthood. These conferences offer an excellent opportunity to have the entire Med-Peds residency together for the discussion of Med-Peds clinical dilemmas. Each Grand Rounds talk is prepared by a resident, either in the form of a formal lecture or through invited guest speakers. Departmental Grand Rounds Weekly Grand Rounds in Medicine and Pediatrics invite faculty from both within and outside of UMDNJ to discuss topics of academic interest. Morning Report Both Internal Medicine and Pediatrics hold daily morning reports which focus on admissions from the Emergency Department as well as outpatient cases from subspecialty clinics. Noon Conference Each department holds daily noon conferences on a "theme of the month" principle, meaning that all topics within a month focus on a certain discipline. This creates more focused learning in anticipation of specialty boards at the end of residency. During each month, residents review board-type questions on the monthly topics in an effort to provide feedback on which areas of the subspecialty are mastered and which need more work. Radiology Rounds In both medicine and pediatrics, radiology rounds are held to review images with an attending radiologist. National Meetings Residents have the opportunity to attend national meetings of the AAP, ACIM, NMPRA, and subspecialty associations. If a resident is first author for either a poster or oral presentation at a conference, Graduate Medical Education funds the travel expenses. |
