#MedEd: Transition to Residency

Today we are joined by three special guests about an important topic: transitioning to residency. What are the important aspects for a smooth transition?  Dr. Helen Kang Morgan is a Clinical Professor at the University of Michigan Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Her medical education work has focused on improving the transition to residency, and she serves as one of the Co-Investigators and Program Evaluation lead on APGO’s Reimagining Residency grant team.   Dr. Anita Malone is the Associate Program Director and Assistant Professor in the University of Michigan Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. She is the ultimate hype person for incoming interns and serves as a continual support for her residents. She, like Dr. Morgan, has a passion for medical education.   Dr. Halley Staples is a 3rd year ObGyn resident at Washington University in St. Louis. She has an interest in medical education and currently serves on APGO’s RRR grant Learner Advisory Group.   Further reading: Staples H, Frank S, Mullen M, Ogburn T, Hammoud MM, Morgan HK.
