Kudos to 3 UT med students

I came across this news article from the University of Toledo and wanted to share some good news.

"UT medical students Zach Adams, Austin Wellock and Derek Klaus presented two abstracts during the Fourth Mediterranean Emergency Medicine Congress held recently in Sorrento, Italy.

Both abstracts were ranked in the top 50 out of 1,000 submissions. In recognition of their efforts, their research will be published in the Journal of Emergency Medicine and the European Journal of Emergency Medicine.
...
“We were the only medical students presenting at this enormous conference, as the rest of the presenters were either residents or attending physicians,” Wellock said.

Adams and Wellock are both third-year medical students; Klaus is a second-year medical student."


The submissions to the conference were ranked by an international panel on the basis of quality of research, methodology, originality and other attributes.

Kudos to them and UT!!!

Maggie,

Having recently had occasion to sample the works of UT's medical students first hand, this comes as no surprise to me.

The bar has been raised very high at UTMC and the faculty and students are impressively reaching that bar and pushing it even higher.

Kudos to the UTMC and the fine work that they are doing!
