Department of Surgery Golf and Tennis Tournament
The Eighth Annual Golf & Tennis Tournament was held at Pelham Country Club on September 22, 2009. The annual fundraiser to raise money for surgical education and research generated over $75,000 in revenue. 10 Sponsors and 6 Patrons, along with many contributors to the Department of Surgery, helped make this the most successful fundraiser ever for the surgical education fund. The monies raised benefit programs in surgical education and research, fund our Surgical Anatomy Course, and enable residents to participate in major conferences across the country. Research is an important aspect and focus of our residency training program. Many of our residents attend professional conferences, give presentations and author publications during their residency. As a measure of the great success of our program’s emphasis on research, in the last academic year, our residents delivered more than 40 presentations, published 68 journal articles and 6 book chapters.
