Proudly Part of Jefferson Health
The Transitional Medicine Residency provides multiple didactic conferences for information mastery. Because of the variety of these conferences, you will gain a rich and diverse experience that complements your clinical training at Lehigh Valley Health Network.
The didactic conferences are scheduled daily from noon to 1 p.m. and on Wednesdays from noon to 3 p.m. (protected education time). These conferences encompass a broad range of presentations, including core subspecialty lectures (annual lecture series), resident presentations, medical grand rounds, resident reports, journal club, resident development seminars, board review, morbidity and mortality conference and various subspecialty and special lectures.
Additionally, there is a supplemental ambulatory didactic series scheduled weekly for when transitional residents are on their ambulatory block. This session takes place at Lehigh Valley Hospital–17th Street on Wednesdays from 1-3 p.m. and consists of a three-year rotating cycle of common ambulatory topics. Because of the scheduling format for categorical residents, this session is available to transitional year residents once during their ambulatory block.
