IM Residency

From the Director

 

Countdown to Stead Tread!! Our organizing team is KILLING IT…It's going to be an amazing event! Come out and run, walk, push a stroller, bring a dog and support a great partnership with Lincoln Community Health Center!  Sign up at www.steadtread.org

 

This week we had a fantastic mentoring night to kick off Women in Medicine Month (see the great kickoff essay by our very own Dr. Zipkin in “This Week in Medicine”) AND a great alumni career focus event.  These are of course gearing us up for Doctoberfest…check your inboxes this week and the Duke Wiki for the Doctoberfest calendar!
