What
The Department of Medicine held its 5th Annual Research Day Dec. 9 at
the Harper Student Center Gymnasium. A total of 83 students, clinicians
and researchers participated in one of six categories—graduate student,
medical student, postdoctoral basic science, clinical fellow, clinical
junior faculty and basic junior faculty.
Achievements
The participants represented a 33 percent increase in participation
from last year. The divisions of infectious diseases and rheumatology
were recognized with the department award for achieving the highest
percentage of overall division participation. Each participant received
funds to support the professional development of junior researchers.
Winners received a $1,000 travel award for professional development.
Thanks goes to the judges and to the S.C. Clinical and Translational
Research Institute’s Success Center for making the event a success.
“Department of Medicine Research Day is now an annual tradition for
displaying, highlighting, sharing, and celebrating the research
activities in the Department. Research Day 2010 was a success,” said
Gary Gilkeson, M.D., vice chairman for research, professor, Division of
Rheumatology.
“We look forward with great anticipation to Research Day in December
2011.”
