Tracking Resident Innovation
The Adopt-A-Resident program has provided funding and faculty mentorship to help nearly 20 residents reimagine resident training since 2008, says Christopher Ho, MD, director of the Diagnostic Radiology Residency program. Such resident-led innovation created popular tracks residents now can pursue to advance their professional training in ways that support their career goals. Between 2018 and 2020, the Clinical Education Track prepared eight residents for academic radiology teaching careers while six residents in the Research Track honed their skills for an academic research career. Eight residents in the Integrated Imaging Informatics Track completed 33 projects leveraging technology to improve quality and efficiency in radiology while the Innovation Track, established in 2018, supported two residents addressing clinical challenges in medical innovation and product design.
