Thank you for joining us for Resident Research Day! For more than a decade, the J. Willis Hurst Internal Medicine Residency Program has hosted this annual event to showcase our residents’ research achievements and celebrate the collaboration between residents and dedicated faculty.
The Resident Research Day Grand Rounds started with the keynote speech, “Mentoring With Heart: Reflections on my Journey in Academic Medicine,” from Modele O. Ogunniyi, MD, associate professor of medicine in the Division of Cardiology.
The event also included resident oral and poster presentations. Please see below for this year’s Resident Research Day winners. Congratulations to all of our presenters on their extraordinary work!
