Each year, the internal medicine residents and members of the faculty gather for a night of music, poetry and storytelling to reflect on their lives in medicine and show how medicine inspires the arts and humanities.
This year, we're combining the event with the Voices of Medicine show we announced earlier – join us Wed., May 15, 2013 at 7 p.m. at Casbah, (1007 West Main Street, Durham) for the Voices of Medicine/Humanities in Medicine show.
Residents, fellows and faculty are invited to both participate and attend this. Volunteer to share a poem, tell a true story, sing a song or play an instrument, dance or explain the significance of a favorite photograph. Contact Erin Payne (erin.payne@duke.edu) by April 28 if you are interested in stepping on stage.

Jeff Polish, executive director of The Monti, a Chapel Hill-based storytelling organization, will be providing professional storytelling coaching for those who are interested in sharing a story. (Polish has a PhD in genetics from Washington University in St. Louis.) This is a great opportunity to help bring your story to life.
For questions, feel free to contact Jason Webb, Juliessa Pavon, Anton Zuiker, or Erin Payne.
