Residents

MDFMR residents are required to complete two scholarly projects, one of which must be a quality improvement project. Residents in a designated osteopathic position also engage in osteopathic scholarship by leading a Journal Club with osteopathic content or integrating osteopathic principles and practice into a didactic or conference presentation.

Examples of recent projects our residents have been involved with include:

  • Studying the effect of a hybrid OMT clinic model
  • Exploring unintended pregnancy among women with opiate use disorder
  • Investigating clinician knowledge and behavior related to metabolic associated steatotic liver disease
  • Assessment of POCUS utilization in a rural emergency department
  • Current practices for dietary guidance at routine clinic visits
  • Implementation of interconception care to improve birth outcomes and health of birthing people, infants, and families
  • Numerous case presentations and publications
