Research

Research Activity is an Essential Part of Training

As one of the key components in ACGME program requirements, research activity is an essential part of training.

Our program has a well-developed infrastructure and fostering culture to support residents who are interested in pursuing basic research, clinical research, or quality improvement/patient safety projects. By promoting research and scholarly activities, our ultimate goal is to train the next generation of physicians with strengths in both clinical and academic medicine.
