Medical students, join us to learn about emergency medicine and see if it’s the specialty for you! You’ll get invaluable advice regarding the pearls and pitfalls of EM and tips for applying to EM residency during the Program Director panel. We will end the day with two hours of interactive, hands-on workshops where you can practice your clinical skills. Workshops will be suturing practice on pig feet and Stop the Bleed where you will learn about initial trauma care and bleeding control. Participants will receive a certificate of completion from the American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma.

Pre-registration is required and open to medical students only. We hope to see you there!
