University at Buffalo Program
About This Program
Our curriculum emphasizes the importance of evidence-based medicine and the core concepts necessary for any intensivist's toolkit. We focus on teaching our trainees how to ask the right questions, how to think about those inquiries and how best to pursue the answers. Using simulation, case conferences, formal bedside teaching and didactic sessions, we expose our fellows to a breadth of learning opportunities that instill knowledge and generate excitement. -
