Surgery Research Recognition Day and Eric R. Frykberg M.D. Lecture

Frykberg MD Lecture

Surgery Research Recognition Day showcases the exceptional research work in which our residents, medical students and graduate students participate. It also provides an opportunity for our trainees, faculty and researchers to learn from world-class experts during the annual Eric R. Frykberg, M.D. Lecture.

We look forward to this year's annual Eric R. Frykberg, M.D. Lecture and Surgery Research Recognition Day on Friday, October 24, from 1 - 5 p.m. in the Drug Discovery Auditorium. 

Erik R. Frykberg, M.D. Lecture - 1 - 2 p.m. 

Allan Kirk, M.D. is this year's invited lecturer. Dr. Kirk is the Chairman of the Department of Surgery and the surgeon-in-chief for the Duke University Health System. He is a transplant surgeon specializing in kidney transplants. The title of the talk is: Costimulation Blockade to Prevent the Rejection of Transplanted Organs

Surgery Research Recognition Day - 2 - 5 p.m.

Immediately following the lecture is our Surgery Research Recognition Day Podium Presentations and awards ceremony. 

Our program is a reflection of the exponential growth we have experienced in MUSC Surgery in the last few years. With an increase in the resident complement, the number of faculty, and newly defined pathways for resident research experiences, it is no surprise that we again had a record number of abstract submissions for Research Day. 

We hope to see you there!
