Edwin C. James Lectureship & Surgical Resident Research Colloquium

The Edwin C. James Lectureship was established in honor of Edwin James, M.D., FACS, professor and chair of the UND Department of Surgery, founder of the UND Surgical Residency Program, and former dean of the SMHS.

koThe 2022 Edwin C. James Lectureship will be held on Friday, June 24, 2022, and will feature Dr. Clifford Ko, the director of the American College of Surgeons Division of Research and Optimal Patient Care.

Dr. Ko’s work focuses on surgical quality of care, including quality measurement, process improvement, value-based care, and achieving high reliability in surgical care. He has served in advisory roles to national and international efforts for achieving higher quality and safety including the World Health Organization, the Institute of Medicine, the National Quality Forum, and PCORI. He has received millions of dollars in grant funding to study quality of care from the National Institutes of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the American Cancer Society, the Centers of Medicare and Medicaid Services, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, and the Veterans Administration. He has published over 400 peer reviewed manuscripts and has written more than 20 book chapters.

Surgical Resident Research Colloquium

The purpose of the annual Surgery Resident Research Colloquium is for the presentation of each general surgery resident’s research project for the academic year. First- and second-year residents present posters of their projects in development. Third, fourth and fifth year residents give oral presentations of their projects. Presentations are judged by a panel of clinical and basic science faculty with the winning projects in each category awarded at the Chief Resident Graduation Banquet. Many of the research projects will be presented at regional or national meetings, and submitted for peer-reviewed publication.

2022 Oral Presentations

Presentation information coming soon!
