Noon Conference Lecture Series
The core curriculum lecture series is held at noon every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Each year, the series begins with coverage of common medical emergencies (Intern Boot Camp lectures), from July to September. For the remainder of the year, the conference series covers core topics in internal medicine. Faculty presenting at this conference are encouraged to make the discussions case-based and interactive. This series will also include lectures on neurology, psychiatry, orthopedics, ophthalmology, pain management, dermatology, sleep medicine, wellness, and a variety of other topics. On the first Friday of each month, the noon conference will be a meeting between residents and program leadership (PD/APD/Chief resident) to discuss ongoing issues and concerns.

A resident-led Journal Club is held once a month on Monday afternoons. All PGY levels are required to participate. On a regular basis, recent articles from major medical journals are discussed in detail under the direction of the chief medical residents and one of the faculty.
Morning Report
All PGY levels are required to participate. It is held once a week and facilitated by faculty and a chief resident. For PGY-1, discussion is aimed at refining presentation skills, and the development of a complete, prioritized differential diagnosis. For PGY-2 and PGY-3s, the discussion is focused on differential diagnoses, management strategies, and discussion of evidence to support the management plan.
