BSD MED - Hospital Medicine
About the Department
Our section prides itself on its strong and integrated programs in
clinical care, research, and education. The strength of our clinical
programs is essential not only to our ability to provide excellent
patient care, but to our ability to perform research that advances the
frontiers of clinical practice and to train future generations of
physicians in hospital medicine. Our research programs allow us to
advance the scientific basis and clinical practice of hospital medicine
and to train hospital medicine researchers who can carry this scientific
mission into the future, often finding inspiration in the desire to
solve clinical dilemmas we encounter in our own practices. Likewise, our
training programs allow us to bring talented young persons into the
relatively new field of hospital medicine, preparing them for productive
and sustainable careers as clinicians, researchers, and educators.
