Resident Research
Our residency is one that fosters any and all academic endeavors. Like our faculty staff, our residents take the time to participate in various research projects while balancing their other academic responsibilities. We hold them to the highest standards of excellence and they deliver. Here is a small fraction of recent publications by our residents.
