In Response to COVID-19

In support of this effort to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus and in consideration for the well-being of our external faculty Duke is postponing, canceling or virtualizing any Duke-sponsored in-person event taking place on-campus or off-campus until further notice. This includes recruitment events, tours, student programs, reunions, performances, conferences and social events. For more information on Duke's response, please see coronavirus.duke.edu/events.

Purpose

The mission for Surgery Grand Rounds is to provide an educational format that has a broad appeal to Duke faculty, residents, staff, and students. Grand Rounds consists of a broad range of topics that are presented by local, regional, and international speakers on clinical education, research science, developments in technology, and also addresses other related issues that may affect our current and future surgeons. Physicians who attend Surgery Grand Rounds are eligible to receive CME credit.
