This rich assembly of seminars, lectures, and workshops are conducted using a highly interactive Socratic approach. Trainees are provided with the opportunity to present and defend their own work under conditions that mimic real-life peer review.  Evaluating the work of their peers and other clinical researchers provides opportunities for the trainees to apply what they have learned in their course studies, develop functional multidisciplinary teams, and exchange ideas.  Events marked with an asterisk are open forum events that may be attended by anyone at UT Southwestern.  For location, specific dates, speakers and topics, please see the Department of Clinical Sciences' Calendar of Events.
