Resident Scholarly Activity

Our residents have ample opportunity for scholarly activity and get involved in a range of projects! There are multiple opportunities for poster presentations at local conferences like SSPR (Southern Society of Pediatric Research) and SSCI (Southern Society for Clinical Investigation) and residents are encouraged to submit to regional and national conferences. Case reports, QI projects, case conferences, and morning or noon reports are another way for residents to get involved and bolster their CV. There are also many opportunities to partner with faculty mentors engaged in both benchtop and clinical research in virtually every subspecialty.

 

Special Shoutout to our 2022 graduate Marie Bulathsinghala, MD, PhD for winning the Oral Presentation at the 10th Annual LSU Quality Improvement and Patient Safety Forum for her presentation “Improving Critical Patient Transitions from OR to NICU Using a Standardized Handoff Tool.”
