Pediatric Hospital Medicine Lecture Series
The Department of Pediatrics hosts twice-monthly sessions following section meetings which are designed for and by our hospitalists, covering a variety of topics including clinical reviews, research, quality, and education-oriented topics, plus other areas that we just want to learn about! We also use this slot for quarterly Journal Club and Case Report Writing Groups where hospitalists can get feedback and work together on case reports or other scholarly activities in progress. These talks are given by a variety of speakers including our hospitalists, fellows, residents, subspecialists, and ancillary care team members. These lectures are approved for CME credit.
