Originally launched in January 2021, the goal of our PDS is to build greater discussion and collaboration amongst our faculty on topics around our department and medical campus. Inspired by our Chair’s CARE (Clinical Service, Administrative support/oversight, Research, Education) model, this series will carry these themes throughout the academic year.
Schedule: Every Wednesday 9-10 a.m., except on weeks with faculty meetings and the fifth Wednesday of the month (following Grand Rounds time from 8-9 a.m.)
