2010 New York Chapter ACP Annual Scientific Meeting Poster Competition
Thursday, November 4, 2010
Radisson Hotel Rochester
120 East Main Street
Rochester, NY 14604
"I believe every single resident should make an effort to do research and present it at ACP. It not only is a great learning experience to conduct research and present it but the experience one gets by presenting it at the ACP platform is unique. You get to meet other residents and fellows and talk about their research and meet seniors in our profession who can be a source of valuable career advice. ACP gives you an opportunity to learn, present, meet and make a name at this stage."
Mohammad Ansari, MD, First Place Winner, Resident/ Fellow Clinical Category – May 2009 |
