Conference Schedule

The Division of Combined Internal Medicine and Pediatrics has a 4-year rotating conference schedule consisting of Combined Medicine-Pediatrics topics.  The curriculum is set so that no matter when you join our program, you’ll receive all the topics during you residency.  The conferences are monthly, on the second Thursday of each education module.  They are held in the afternoon for three hours and lunch provided.

This is in addition to categorical Medicine and Pediatric educational conferences and activities.  Both categorical programs offer weekly educational conferences, academic morning reports, grand rounds, and family-centered learning rounds.

The UB School of Medicine and BMS is accredited by the Accreditation Council for CME to sponsor CME for physicians.  The UB School of Medicine and BMS designates this program for 3.00 AMA PRA Category 1 credits.  Each physician should claim only the actual time spent in educational activity.
