Event Description
This session will be videoconferenced to the Vice Dean's Conference Room, Queen Lane Campus.

Educational Goals
The discussion is intended to provide practical points on how to — and how not to — craft a personal statement for the purpose of gaining a fellowship position, a promotion or even a residency position. We will critique paragraphs that work and paragraphs that do not work, asking the question, “Would I want to hire (or promote) this person?” You can expect to come away with a rough template for yourself to write a successful, and not too stressful, personal statement.
Target Audience
Residents, junior faculty and medical students. |
