Scholarship
Scholarship
Northwestern values scholarship, and our residency strives to provide an environment of intellectual curiosity. All residents acquire skills in evidence-based medicine and competence in the evaluation and analysis of medical literature. Residents have online access to Galter Library through Northwestern, and the department houses epidemiologic/statistics support for primary care research.
Residents also complete several quality improvement projects over the course of three years. Dedicated small group learning time for scholarly activities, practice management, health systems management/population health is scheduled on Friday mornings.
Leadership & Community Medicine
Leadership & Community Medicine
Residents develop leadership skills and contribute to both their community as well as their specialty from the beginning of their training. Residents participate in hospital/departmental committees and develop critical assessment skills in areas such as quality improvement, patient safety and wellness that are important for lifelong professional development. Residents are also encouraged to become advocates at the local and national level through state and national family medicine organizations.
