Our residents pursue projects across a number of subspecialties and have been successful in both publishing their work and presenting at national conferences annually. Pictured is Marissa Catalanotto, PGY3, at the American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians Annual Meeting 2022 presenting her work.
Please find a sample of some of our recent work.
