Incubator Meetings

The Division of Hospital Medicine hosts the DHM ‘Incubator’ every Thursday from 1-2 PM in U107. The goal of the Incubator is to help develop scholarly projects among DHM faculty through a group-based ‘works in progress’ format. Educational, quality improvement, and investigator-initiated research projects are reviewed. Questions about the Incubator should be directed to Andy Auerbach.
