Capital Health – Hamilton Diagnostic Services Updates

Research/Scholarly Activity

The Capital Health Internal Medicine Residency Program offers many opportunities to develop research projects and conduct scholarly activities.

All PGY2 and PGY3 residents are expected to submit case report abstracts to one or more conferences each year under the mentoring of program faculty with the support of the Clinical Research Department. This results in a large number of acceptances at regional, national and international conferences. First authors receive a stipend to facilitate attending the meeting for the presentation. Residents are encouraged to develop their poster further into published case reports.
