Join us at the UTDRO Research Day 2020 event.
Each spring we are excited to showcase and celebrate some of the great research happening across UTDRO through the submitted abstracts, oral presentations, and posters for Research Day. It is an opportunity for faculty and trainees to discuss the findings from their research, meet with their colleagues, and expose medical students to research.
We encourage all residents, fellows, STARS21, and other trainees who are supervised by a UTDRO Faculty Member to submit their abstracts for an opportunity to present their work.

- Keynote speaker (TBD)

Further details and bios for speakers will be made available closer to the date of the event.
