Various journal/book clubs and faculty/resident rounds are also available and participation by the successful applicant will be encouraged. The possibilities for interaction or participation in research projects exist. The intern will be encouraged to prepare and submit a case report, retrospective study, or review article to a refereed journal for publication during the internship year.
