The Department of Rehabilitation Medicine at Emory University offers training for the next generation of rehabilitation professionals in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Physical Therapy and Neuropsychology and Behavioral health, who are envisioned as becoming leaders in rehabilitation medicine while engaging in research, teaching, and service in an academic environment. Rehabilitation medicine at Emory continues to promote excellence in the science of rehabilitation medicine through interdisciplinary teaching, collaboration and cooperation in research.
Grand Rounds
Used as an important teaching tool in medical education, grand rounds provides residents and faculty with a way to stay up-to-date on important and ever-evolving areas of rehabilitation medicine. The Department of Rehabilitation Medicine conducts grand round sessions on the first or third Thursday of each month from 12:15 pm to 1:00 pm with the objective of allowing a continual platform to present topics, issues and advancements within the field.
Neuromodulation in Neurorehabilitation Treatment Journal Club
When: Occurs every month on the first Thursday of the month from 12:00-1:00 PM.
Where: Room 230, Emory Rehabilitation Hospital (aka the Center for Rehabilitation Medicine)
Why: The overarching goal of this journal club is to get faculty, students and staff from labs of the Emory Rehabilitation Hospital together to discuss the science of neuroplasticity and rehabilitation. This journal club provides a forum for members to present scientific papers, recent presentations and/or grant ideas to exploit the knowledge and expertise that resides here at Emory University. A major goal is for presenters to provide an educational experience for the group so that everyone (including the presenter) leaves each meeting with a better understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the topic under discussion. Another major goal is to make sure we all know just what research is done by our colleagues in order to foster collaborations.
Please email Dr. Buetefisch to reserve a date to present.
