Residency Education Initiatives

  • Global Emergency Medicine Journal Club gathering residents, fellows, and faculty for in-depth discussions on recent research and current topics in our field.
  • Residency didactic lectures on topics relevant to global health and social emergency medicine.

Our division prioritizes the support of the teaching and service mission of the USC Emergency Medicine Residency, one of the nation’s first emergency medicine residencies with a long legacy of global health involvement. Our division offers one-on-one, ongoing mentorship to residents and fellows interested in exploring careers in global health. Division faculty are involved in a wide array of research and development projects, and interested residents are invited to participate in a variety of ways.
