This series will provide an environment of scholarly activity apart from clinical responsibilities for education of residents, faculty, and community physicians on the most current understanding and practice in the field of otolaryngology and its related specialties. Conferences will include instruction on the most current thinking and practice from national and international experts in their field; review and instruction on the most important aspects of a variety of topics in otolaryngology through the resident lecture series; enhancement of clinical practice and decision-making in otolaryngology through presentation of complex cases related to the general topic of the day; identifying current areas of basic science and clinical research through participation in journal club; and employing a broad perspective of otolaryngology through lectures from our specialties, including communicative and vestibular disorders, pathology, and radiology.
