2018 Research Forum
Introduction
Welcome to the 18th Annual Kern Medical Research Forum.
The purpose of the Kern Medical Research Forum is to foster in-depth comprehension of research, and promotion of scholarly pursuits among residents, faculty, physicians, medical students, nurses, pharmacists, physical therapists, and mental health clinicians for the advancement of medical science. The Forum serves to highlight research activities of Kern Medical and associated staff, and recognize special contributions and innovations to health care and medical education. Research and scholarly activity are inclusive requirements of all approved residency-training specialty programs at KernMedical. Participation inmedical and scientific researchcontributes to the advancement of high quality patient care and serves to recognize Kern Medical as a best practice, science-based, tertiary referral center. Prior to this evening, we received multi-patient studies and unique case report abstracts representative of the scholarly activities in the majority of the residency specialties. The multi-patient abstracts were blind-scored; the top scoring abstracts were chosen for the oral presentation competition. A research-experienced jury panel will score the presentations. We would like to acknowledge the hard work of all the participants, faculty and staff. The achievements reflected in the posters displayed and the program presentations represent resident and faculty commitment to scholarly activities.
