Lectures/Didactics

On Tuesdays and Thursdays at 8 am in the UH MER you will have brief (20-30 min) lectures from EM faculty and residents on a variety of core EM topics. These lectures are informal and frequently interactive, and have been very popular in the past. These are mandatory lectures; if you foresee any problems with attending a certain lecture, you must let the course director know ahead of time. The schedule of lecturers and topics is posted on the Yahoo! calendar.

Other scholarly opportunities include:

EM resident weekly conferences are held on Wednesdays from 7 am - 11 am in the UH basement conference room. Lectures are given each week by EM faculty and residents, as well as visiting guest speakers. You may attend these if you are interested.
Monthly EM Journal Club is held on the second Thursday of each month (usually at a restaurant). Students are invited to attend this lively discussion and debate of current EM controversies.
Hands on ultrasound and patient simulator cases are incorporated into student learning both informally in the ED and through the student lecture series.
