Interviews are by invitation only. Due to the pandemic, all interviews will be virtual this year. For up-to-date information on how Baylor College of Medicine is responding to the pandemic, visit our Coronavirus website. Baylor College of Medicine fosters diversity as a prerequisite to accomplishing our institutional mission and setting standards for excellence in training healthcare providers and providing patient-centered care.
As our program also adapts to issues related to the current pandemic, our priority has been and remains the safety of our residents, fellows, faculty and staff. Please explore this website and learn more about our program. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact Becky Baxter at beckyb bcm. Follow us on Twitter , Instagram or Facebook. We also focus on developing relationships with radiology AI companies with the opportunity to work with them as residents to gain hands-on experience and exposure to clinical AI applications.
We also believe in innovation and the important role it plays in the advancement of radiology, historically a technology-heavy specialty in medicine. As a young and small initiative, this is a goal that will take some time to materialize, but a long-term goal is to develop an AI-focused incubator at BCM where we can become more intimately involved with the innovative culture of AI startup companies.
For interested parties looking to get involved, contact our current chair George Wu or other resident leaders Mohab Elmohr, Calvin Le, and Saad Jafri R1 , for more information. The Physician as Educator pillar provides residents with opportunities to improve their skills as educators through supervision, teaching, and collaborative learning. Over time, residents start giving noon conference lectures to Internal Medicine and Family Medicine. In addition to our interdisciplinary education initiatives, we put on an annual R1 bootcamp for incoming residents.
The Professional Development pillar is designed to help residents develop and hone their skills related to education and career growth. We host one event every weeks where a guest speaker comes to discuss topics such as PowerPoint slide design, effective use of Zoom, CV writing, how to give feedback, leadership skills, etc.
Lastly, we have the Educational Innovation pillar. To uphold this pillar, residents complete two substantive projects that showcase their commitment to clinical education. In addition to the daily teaching performed while interpreting examinations, performing procedures and providing consultation to clinicians, daily educational conferences provide education in general and subspecialty topics in radiology.
Most of these conferences are taught by faculty, but radiology fellows and upper-level residents occasionally provide instruction. All residents are excused daily from their clinical responsibilities from noon to 1 p. Morning conferences are given several times each month. This weekly conference is taught by one of our physicists covering the material over the course of a year and repeated annually.
Preparation for the written board exam is also a priority for these conferences. Residents participate in a multitude of oncology multidisciplinary conferences where input from multiple subspecialties determines the optimal course of therapies for the patient. These include bone and soft tissue, breast, chest, endocrine, gastrointestinal, head and neck, CNS, pancreas, colorectal and liver tumor boards.
Joint-case conferences are also held with the Pathology Residency and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Residency programs. This conference is held every other month and cover health care changes, healthcare economics, government relations and business development.
Both the annual Baldwin Lectureship series and the annual Sears Seminar lecture series bring in nationally acclaimed radiologists as guest speakers. Our facility is a Level 1 Trauma Center, holds Comprehensive Stroke Certification status and is an internationally renowned destination for transplant care. Residents are required to complete at least one scholarly activity and one quality improvement QI project under staff supervision during the residency.
Many opportunities exist for scholarly activities, including multidisciplinary, intra or interdepartmental conferences, as well as case report presentations and involvement in intra or interdepartmental continuous quality improvement teams. A resident research fund provides residents financial support to perform and present clinical research. Each resident may attend only one meeting presentation for any one research project.
This feat only matched by two other programs out of more than residency programs in the nation. Unique to this win is that this is the first time that a team has won back-to-back years in the history of the competition.
