Departmental seminars are held in-person in the Rockefeller Auditorium and will be accessible via Zoom and will take place on the 2nd Thursday of the month, from 3:00- 4:30pm EST, September through May.
Biomedical Sciences Departmental Seminar Series are free and open to all.
CME Course Objectives
CME credit is available to participants who attend and who have filled out an attestation form.
Upon completion of this program, attendees should be able to:
- Apply the information delivered in the session to compare and contrast current therapeutic modalities to future possibilities of treatments of disease.
- Able to use the information delivered to differentiate novel mechanisms of disease to established paradigms.
- Demonstrate the ability to ask appropriate questions of the material and recognize when lines of inquiry fall outside of disciplinary boundaries.
