Pediatric Grand Rounds
Attention
Our pediatric grand rounds series transitioned to a primarily virtual platform on March 18, 2020 to allow our grand rounds attendees to learn and participate from any location. In-person sessions are held at the discretion of the hosting division and will be marked as such here and on the Grand Rounds Calendar. We look forward to learning alongside you every Wednesday morning!
Each Wednesday, the Department of Pediatrics offers learning opportunities for pediatric professionals throughout the community - both inside and outside the University.
Pediatric Grand Rounds is designed to improve the broad practice of pediatric medicine, including patient care, healthcare research, medical education, public health, and innovation.
Grand Rounds sessions are open to the public, and most presentation materials are posted here for review. CME credits are available to those who watch live online.
Below is a list of upcoming Pediatric Grand Rounds sessions.
