Medical Education (JA Petershack, MM Vasquez)<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It is our goal to become recognized leaders in medical education, in part achieved by utilizing innovative and effective pedagogies. We strive to ensure that our learners are engaged with the best learning tools and state of the art technology which will enable them to utilize that training to provide unsurpassed care to their future patients. \u00a0Our experienced faculty educators use a variety of different techniques, including team-based learning and flipped classrooms, each of which are tailored to the appropriate educational level of those learners; medical students, pediatric residents, and Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine fellows. Faculty educators have gained national and international recognition by dissemination of their work in the form of educational workshops at the Pediatric Academic Societies and American Academy of Pediatrics meetings.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″]
