The lab is saying farewell to Brandon Girardi as he finishes his Masters in Education. Brandon will be returning to residency in Orthopedic Surgery. He is part of the Surgeon Scientist Training Program.
Brandon’s research was a qualitative assessment of surgical bootcamp training. He completed semi structured interviews of staff, residents and faculty to determine the competencies most valued in junior surgical trainees when starting their clinical duties within the hospital. The focus is on resident learning, patient safety and the transition from student to resident.
