Previous Events
The 13th annual Resident/Fellow Research Day, held on May 1, 2025, was an opportunity for graduate medical education trainees from Penn State Health to share their research work.
The event was held virtually and in partnership with EdVenture 2025. EdVenture is the Penn State College of Medicine’s annual celebration of teaching and learning.
Of the 49 abstract submissions received, the top three were chosen to be oral presenters based on the decision of a judging committee from Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and Penn State College of Medicine. The other applicants were invited to present posters during the virtual session.
The three oral presentations were moderated by Dr. Karl Clebak, Designated Institutional Official. Those presentations are available for viewing via this recording link: Resident/Fellow Research Day 2025 Oral Presentations. Additionally, the virtual posters are still available for viewing at: 2025 Virtual Posters.
