Good news everyone – Google has accepted our application for a full Google Suite for Education account for our residency program! This gives us access to the entire suite of Google’s cloud-based software and educational tools for free. Take a look at what Google Suite for Education has to offer:

Overview of Google Suite:

What this will entitle everyone in our program to is a private Google account (firstname.lastname@ubresidents.com) with access to Gmail powered e-mail services, google docs, unlimited file storage in google drive, and a whole host of other services. I am working to get our account to be compliant with HIPAA so that we can store patient sensitive information on there too if needed.

If you are interested in obtaining an account, please e-mail me privately and I will set you up with one.

For anyone that may have been experiencing issues with accessing the conference schedule, the issue has now been resolved. You no longer need to sign-in with a google account to access the most updated copy of the schedule.

As a reminder, the conference schedule is no longer being e-mailed out. It will now be available at the following URL:

Module Conference Schedule

This will be updated to reflect the schedule for the current module throughout the year. Please be sure to review the conference schedule at the beginning of every module so that you know when you are scheduled to present. Contact the chiefs or Arlene with any questions. Thanks!

In the meantime, we would like to get a headcount for how many people will be attending. Please take a minute to fill out this form and let us know who you will be bringing along. Be sure to include significant others, kids, parents, etc if they will be joining you.
