A full variety of clinical and research conferences is supported by the division.
- The Clinical Lecture Series is a weekly seminar designed to provide didactic education in subject material integral for the study and practice of infectious diseases. These lectures are at 8:00 am on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Tuesday mornings of each month.
The 4th Tuesday morning of each month is designated for board review. This session is run by a combination of clinical faculty, the chief fellow, and senior fellows and is designed to focus on topics essential for preparation for the ABIM Infectious Diseases subspecialty exam.
