The Second Annual Pediatric Science Day was held on March 9, 2017 in the Bradley Lecture Center. The organizers are pleased to announce the day was another huge success! Nineteen pediatric presentations were showcased including presentations by 15 pediatric fellows, three residents, and one medical student. Additionally, 11 posters were presented, ten by pediatric fellows and one medical student. We were thrilled that Dr. Michael Haller, Professor and Chief of Pediatric Endocrinology at the University of Florida, was able to join us as the featured Grand Rounds speaker. He was an integral active participant during both the platform and poster sessions, and gave a very informative grand rounds presentation on his experiences into the type 1 diabetes research world. Two fellows and one resident were highlighted with best abstracts in their section: Dr. Corey Falcon (second year Hematology & Oncology fellow), Dr. Colm Travers (third year Neonatology fellow), and Dr. Erika Bishop (third year Pediatric resident). The day was even more complete as many faculty members took time to enjoy the presentations and the poster session. Special thanks to the seven faculty who took time to review the abstracts: Drs. Tofil, Wu, Cohen, Lebensburger, Nassetta, Iyer and McCormick. We look forward to next year - Pediatric Science Day 2018!
