Education
Education is the key component to the NYU PM&R residency training program and therefore, program leadership continuously strives to reach a delicate balance of learning and service.
The Residency Education Curriculum is organized into an 18-month cycle that covers all of the core topics covered by the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. This ensures that all residents will complete a full cycle of learning twice during their residency at NYU, once as a junior resident, and once as a senior resident.
The topics discussed in the Resident Lecture Series, Journal Club and Grand Rounds, described below, correspond to the topics of the 18-month cycle.
