The Department of Surgery holds a weekly M&M conference on Thursday mornings at 7:00 am. The fellows and residents on the vascular rotation are expected to post and present vascular morbidities and mortalities for discussion.

Educational Conference
Weekly Vascular Surgery education conferences are held on Friday mornings at 7:00 am. Twice a month the vascular fellows share the responsibility of presenting a topic followed by a discussion with the faculty.
The remaining two Fridays of the month are dedicated to a combined conference with the Pennsylvania Hospital Vascular Fellowship Program. This combined conference is arranged so that, in alternating fashion, the fellows from one program present cases while the fellows from the other program are quizzed in oral board style.
