Didactic Curriculum
Noon Report
Noon Report is held daily and focuses on the growth of clinical reasoning skills by utilizing case-based presentations that facilitate discussion among residents and invited faculty. Also, special presentations at the end of each academic block such as journal club, morbidity & mortality, grand rounds, and doctor’s dilemma (ACP Jeopardy style).
Academic Half Day
The academic half-day (AHD) is an alternative to the noon conference curriculum and involves a dedicated, weekly, 3-to-4-hour teaching period that can replace the traditional daily 1-hour sessions. We included important topics that are necessary to become a well-rounded physician.
