Research opportunities supported by faculty

During your emergency medicine residency with Dignity Health East Valley, you will cultivate your knowledge and expertise as a clinician through research and scholarship opportunities. 

A program built to support quality research

Our emergency medicine program is lucky to have a dedicated group of research assistants in the ED, an IRB team specifically through East Valley to review local research projects, as well as ongoing research related to cardiology and trauma. Our faculty are dedicated to helping residents complete their required research and QI projects, and we will have an annual research day to highlight and celebrate these projects. 

Ample opportunities for research

Dignity Health East Valley has more than 74 ongoing research trials. As a resident, you can join ongoing research and clinical trials or develop your own research supported by your mentor, advisor, and other faculty. 

Our program also supports all residents to become involved in the American College of Physicians and present their research/scholarly posters at state and national meetings.
