Resident Research
The Virtua Health Family Medicine Residency Program at Rowan-Virtua SOM requires all residents to complete and present an original research project during their training. We offer a two-week research rotation under the direction of our research directors in the beginning of PGY2 to identify a research mentor, set up the research projects and submit for IRB approval.
Our residents present their research at a national or regional level in PGY3.
Current Research Projects Include:
