Anesthesiology Residency

The Anesthesiology Residency program offers a didactic curriculum that leads to ABA eligibility, with individualized curricula for each training year and combined didactics to promote teaching, teamwork, and information sharing.

CA-1 Didactic Series

The CA-1 lectures series focuses on the ABA basic curriculum, with sessions including formal lectures, workshops, PBLDs, board review sessions, and a trip to the anatomy lab.

CA-2 Didactic Series

Residents at the CA-2 level participate in small group didactics on each of the subspecialty rotation blocks: pediatric anesthesia, chronic pain, critical care, and cardiac anesthesia.

CA-3 Didactic Series

CA-3 residents meet every Tuesday morning for two hours and have protected time away from their clinical responsibilities to participate in a senior seminar, with a focus on rigorous preparation for the board exams.

Combined Didactics

Residents attend weekly Wednesday morning Grand Rounds, which consist of invited speaker sessions, quality assurance discussions, clinical case conferences, senior resident presentations of their scholarly activity, and simulation sessions.
