RESEARCH SHOWCASE
This year's UW Department of Emergency Medicine annual Research Showcase on May 7, 2020 was conducted virtually (due to COVID-19) and featured groundbreaking research from faculty, residents, and students.
Research topics included population health, point-of-care ultrasound, ECMO, trauma resuscitation, and substance use disorder.
