Core Lecture Series
back

Distinguished faculty representing a wide variety of specialties within the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center community bring an evidence-based approach to the Core Lecture Series. Each series is structured to achieve an in-depth look at a major organ system and examine the practicalities of patient care in the critically ill. The information presented continually evolves to meet the changing needs of our programs' graduates.

Web-based delivery brings each Core Lecture to fellows, faculty, and alumni in a convenient and secure system. Course management tools assess learning and allow fellows to evaluate the lectures.
