Pulmonary Research Conference
Faculty Responsible: Rama Mallampalli, M.D.

Goals:
- Expose all participants to contemporary pulmonary research

Design of the Conference:
The conference is held weekly September through June for one hour. It is a lecture/discussion format providing for lecturer/audience interactions.
All faculty present one research conference per year, and approximately 9-12 outside speakers are invited to present their ongoing research. These invited participants often spend one or two additional days meeting with faculty and fellows in the Division.
All second and third year fellows present their research annually at this conference to provide an opportunity for constructive critique from the Division and to allow assessment of their research progress.
Evaluation:
Informal interviews with conference participants.
