DAGMEC 20th Annual Virginia C. Wood Resident Research Forum
We would like to thank everyone for their participation in the 20th Annual Virginia C. Wood Resident Research Forum that took place on April 25th at Top of the Market Banquet Center in Dayton. This event provides trainees with an opportunity to present their work and receive feedback on their research. 75 residents/fellows presented their scholarly work to 42 voluntary judges from around the graduate medical education community. 8 staff volunteers were on hand to help the residents with their posters and assist the judges with navigating the mobile scoring process. We extend our sincere thanks to all who give their time and efforts to support graduate medical education.
