Resident led conferences using clinical pearls and board style questions these interactive sessions aim to regularly assess and improve medical knowledge at all levels, supervised by a faculty. Using the Medical Knowledge Self-Assessment Program (MKSAP) tools, these sessions allow for residents and faculty to help each other prepare for the certifying/recertifying examinations and maintenance of certification (MOC) in internal medicine.

This 18-month curriculum is designed to cover the core topics in internal medicine and intentionally uses repetition to allow learners to interact with the content at the introductory and more advanced levels and the opportunity to revisit and consolidate knowledge as they grow in clinical experiences and exposure. This series is run primarily by the core faculty and augments learning in the clinical setting (additional time spent on conditions that are important but less commonly seen in the clinical setting).

This series is held weekly and initially will be in conjunction with the MUSC Department of Family Medicine at Charleston. Topics and speakers are selected to provide faculty and trainees with up-to-date knowledge about timely issues in internal medicine. MUSC LMC has its own Grand rounds on the Fourth Thursday of every month.

Interactive case- based discussion of unique and or challenging cases to develop clinical reasoning and decision making. Cases are either based at Lancaster Medical Center or Charleston MUSC but always have a faculty member from LMC to facilitate the discussion in-person.

This series looks at new and seminal articles relevant to the practice of internal medicine. The presentations are focused on appraisal of the medical evidence and the ramifications for practice.

The goals is to: (1) improve the quality and safety of our patient care by learning from past performance, adverse events, errors, and near misses, (2) identify and suggest practice and systems improvements to prevent similar future episodes, and (3) educate all internal medicine intern physicians via an experiential opportunity of reviewing a real-life Moffitt case with a faculty-supervised, structured root cause analysis, thereby enhancing our culture of safety within our residency program, department, and institution.
