RECORDED POSTER PRESENTATIONS

In addition to live presentations, this event includes pre-recorded 3-5 minute video presentations of their posters. Our presenters are CHM-affiliated medical students and residents from around the state of Michigan, presenting research, quality improvement, reviews, and case reports. Some of our presentations are "works-in-progress", which will allow our presenters to get feedback from the community on study design, methods, etc..

There are three categories of posters – Research and Quality Improvement, Case Reports, and Reviews.  You can access these poster presentations using the menu on the right.
