Resident and Fellows Scholars Day

All pediatric Residents complete a scholarly activity during their residency. To celebrate this achievement, Resident Scholars Day is held annually in June for finalists to present their work during a special Grand Rounds meeting. This is followed by a Poster Presentation in the lobby of the Children's Hospital of Georgia to display all scholarly work completed by graduating pediatric resident and fellows.
