A review of pertinent articles from the past months of Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery presented by the fellows with faculty comment.

Faculty Lecture and Visiting Professors
Regular conferences, which have a consistent format and specific lectures on topics of particular interest will be given by either faculty or visiting lecturers. Our goal with these conferences is to cover all the various aspects of Plastic Surgery in a three-year period.

M & M Conference
Discussion of complications and adverse outcomes is a vital part of any residency program. Even the most minor complication can serve as a valuable teaching tool. With this in mind, conferences are held every two months to discuss any occurrences and ensure that we meet and exceed the standard of care.
