Academic Competition and Research Symposium

The Academic Competition and Research Symposium showcases scholarly work of our many graduate and undergraduate academic trainee programs through an abstract and poster competition. All scholarly works were based on activities performed while the trainee was working at Northwell Health, the Zucker School of Medicine or the Hofstra Northwell School of Graduate Nursing & Physician Assistant Studies.

The Research Symposium includes an invited speaker for the Seymour Cohen Memorial Lecture on a significant topic in medical education. The day concludes with recognition of teachers of the year. This website, new in 2020, establishes an online repository for the lecture, the posters for the selected finalists, and a record for each of the abstract submissions.
