Trauma Conference

The Trauma Conference is held from 6:40-7:25am on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th Thursdays of each month. This rotating, two-year specialty conference provides the residents with a separate and focused educational opportunity in trauma and reconstruction. It is presented simultaneously to the residents both at WakeMed in Raleigh and at UNC through video teleconferencing.

Drs. LeCroy and Dahners are the faculty coordinators.
