Scholarship That Fits Your Goals

Scholarly activity is required, but it is not one-size-fits-all. Residents build an individualized scholarly plan aligned with their career goals, supported by research coordinators, biostatisticians, faculty mentors, and a broader hospital network.

Scholarly work is organized around a simple principle: residents should have access to real infrastructure, meaningful data, and enough flexibility to pursue work that fits their interests.

01

Support From Idea to Dissemination

Research Support

A dedicated research team — including research coordinators and biostatisticians — supports residents through project development, data analysis, and dissemination.

A Broader Research Network

As part of a larger network of hospitals, residents can connect with collaborators across Florida and the country.

02

Data & Study Opportunities

Enterprise Data

Access to enterprise-wide hospitalization and emergency-department data creates opportunities to ask clinically meaningful questions at scale.

Prospective & Traditional Research

Prospective studies are actively enrolling in the department, and the program supports residents who want to develop new traditional research projects.

03

Resident-Driven Scholarship

Individualized Scholarly Activity

Scholarly requirements can take different forms depending on a resident's goals. Faculty work with each resident to build an individualized plan rather than forcing every learner into the same type of project.

Current Project Topics

Current work includes ultrasound-guided hip blocks, headache treatment, resident fatigue related to administrative duties, and additional resident-driven projects.
