On October 6th, we were lucky to have Dr. Susan Stern, professor and division head of emergency medicine at the University of Washington and Harborview Medical Center, give a talk to our group. Topics included reasons for choosing EM, information about the upcoming Seattle residency program, issues when applying for residency and clerkships, and other student questions.

We recorded the presentation for people who couldn't be in Seattle, and now it's available online. It includes the introduction of the new EMIG leadership, and the Q/A session at the end. See the video below!

As a past EMIG leader, I am really happy to see this moving forward to see EMIG leadership involved in the process and promoting it! Posting this info online is wonderful and believe me, people are watching and curious about what is happening in Seattle! There will be battles to fight, but Seattle could be an EPICENTER of Emergency Medicine. It could attract the best in the country and UW/HMC have some excellent and strong departments and programs to learn from. I hope to see cooperation amongst all the departments to make this another reason for UW/HMC to be proud! It has been tough in the past, but I know it can be done. And for all you folks that are interested in being the "first class". Don't worry! You will help make it happen and it may be tough at times, but there are great people there and honestly, residency is what YOU make it. Seattle has all the raw materials, MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!
