William P. Kanto Pediatric Resident Research Award
Each academic year, four third year residents are chosen to formally present their
Scholarly Project on Resident Research Day. The Scholarly Activity oversight committee
will then choose the first and second place recipients. Awards are presented at the
annual Resident's Hail and Farewell Reception in late June. All other third year residents
have the opportunity to present their Scholarly Project as a Poster Presentation on
Resident Research Day.
