Background
In October 2020, the Department of Medicine launched a new continuing medical education series for our faculty and trainees.
The Duke Medicine Learning, Education, and Discussion Series (LEADS) will take place each Tuesday from 12 to 12:45pm.
Together with Medicine Grand Rounds, Duke Medicine LEADS will keep our knowledge current and our skills sharp while strengthening our commitment to being a values-driven, data-driven, and anti-racist department.
Rotating themes
The series will include four rotating themes, guided by teams of faculty and our chief residents:
- Health Equities and Disparities in Medicine, for ongoing dialogue about diversity, equity, and inclusion — Laura Svetkey and Kim Evans (senior leads), Julius Wilder (faculty lead), and Sara Coles (chief resident).
- Diagnostic Reasoning and Discussions, a case-based discussion — Aimee Zaas and Eileen Maziarz (senior leads), Alex Horne (faculty lead), and Lonnie Sullivan (chief resident).
- Quality and Systems-based Approaches in Medicine, explorations of quality, process improvement, and value-based care — Chet Patel (senior lead), and Ryan Duffy (chief resident).
- Topic-based Clinical Updates, to review internal medicine guidelines and explore new therapies — Anne Phelps (senior lead), David Leverenz (faculty leads), and Nathaniel Harris (chief resident).
- Activity Director: Lisa Criscione-Schreiber
- Program Coordinator: Jessica Nipper
