PM&R Curriculum and Didactics
The didactic curriculum focuses on the major areas as outlined by the American Board of PM&R. In addition to the protected time for resident education every Friday, residents receive both formal and informal education during their rotations and participate in an annual anatomy lab course.
Each PM&R resident participates in quality improvement projects and are encouraged to partner with faculty in research projects and scholarly activities.
Our PGY1 curriculum will be managed by our Internal Medicine Department but has been designed to benefit a future physiatrist.
