FOEM/EMP Resident Research Paper Competition

This is FOEM’s most prestigious event.   Participants submit their research papers (already required to complete residency training) for review by a panel of physician experts.   The panel identifies the top 3 papers and the resident-authors present their findings at the Annual FOEM/EMP Research Luncheon that is held during the ACOEP Scientific Assembly.  Research is mandatory, so SUBMIT YOUR PAPERS TO FOEM and win some cash!

    • DEADLINE FOR APPLICATION/SUBMISSION OF PAPER:  July 31
    • FOEM will give up to $3500 annually for the best research papers.   Typically the top 3 papers get $2000, $1000, and $500 respectively, but FOEM reserves the right to withhold funds if quality work is not submitted.   FOEM may also divide the money between 2 papers or give it to one winner depending on the circumstance.
