Objectives: Upon completion of this program, attendees should be able to: 1) Describe ongoing original research in the CAMC, WVU/Charleston and WV School of Osteopathic Medicine medical community. 2) Discuss case reports and their role in clinical practice. 3) Encourage principal investigators/preceptors, residents, fellows, and students in their pursuits around excellence in clinical research. 4) Express options for integrating new knowledge gained from research presentations into clinical practice RESEARCH DAY: Research Day was initiated in 1980 and was preceded by a similar event entitled Alumni-Education Day. This event has traditionally been planned to showcase research work completed by residents, fellows, medical students, pharmacy students/residents, and nursing students. This year’s program continues to feature collaborative efforts of residents, fellows, and student presentations with faculty/medical staff/professional staff preceptors. Research Day Awards will be presented at the conclusion of today’s program recognizing outstanding presenters of these research projects in each of the four categories (oral original, oral case, poster original, poster case).
