This research symposium provides an opportunity for residents to present their work and to develop cross-departmental collaborations.
Five top abstracts will be selected for oral presentation and will be awarded $75 gift cards. Additionally, we will be selecting three posters for $50 gift cards. The posters will be selected on the day of the event from among attendees (residents and faculty) and winning posters will receive their award at a later date.
Application Instructions and Deadlines:
Resident abstracts are reviewed for both oral and poster presentation. Residents are encouraged to submit any projects that have at least preliminary outcomes data or results, including posters already presented in another venue, and projects that are still in-progress. All abstracts must include some data with at least preliminary results to present and all abstracts are limited to 450 words. (Please see on last year’s program for examples). Abstracts may present findings from any discipline, provided that they are designed to contribute to generalizable knowledge. Reports of medical education or quality improvement initiatives should be submitted only if rigorous research methods are used to assess outcomes and results are expected to be generalized to a larger population beyond the initial site of implementation. Residents may only present while in residency.
NOTE: All residents accepting any Resident Research Training Program (RRTP) award such as Resident Research Funding (RRF) or Resident Research Travel (RRT) agree to submit an abstract to the symposium before leaving UCSF.
