Department of Medicine Faculty, Fellows and Residents:

Congratulations to our residents and fellows who represented the Department of Medicine extremely well today, April 23rd, 2019, at the SIU SOM Trainee Research Symposium.  Of the 63 oral and poster presentations, 22 were from the Department of Medicine.  Our trainees did a remarkable job of presenting clinical vignettes and hypothesis-driven research in the form of oral presentations and posters.  It was energizing to be surrounded by highly motivated and talented scholars.
