Research and Scholarship

The goals of the COMSEP research and scholarship task force are to promote and facilitate educational research and scholarship in our organization and equip the members to engage in high-quality research and scholarship.

The activities of this task force include:
  • Request and review abstracts by COMSEP members on their research and educational innovations for the annual meeting.
  • Organize the oral presentation and poster sessions of COMSEP members' research and innovations for the annual meeting.
  • Provide a forum to discuss ongoing and future research projects
  • Present one or more workshops about research and scholarship at each COMSEP meeting.
  • Foster collaboration among COMSEP members to produce scholarly work by encouraging and facilitating multi-institutional research projects, systematic reviews and workshops presented at COMSEP and other national meetings.
  • Foster collaboration about research and scholarship between COMSEP and Association of Pediatric Program Directors (APPD) members.

The current co-chairs of the research and scholarship task force are Janice Hanson, PhD and Linda Tewksbury, MD.


2010 Annual Meeting

At the annual COMSEP meeting on March 24-27, 2010, we will again have both platform and poster research and scholarship presentations. These presentations provide COMSEP members the opportunity to share original research, teaching tools, and innovative programs. We will consider submissions that focus on all types of educational scholarship including:

  • Educational research with relevance to pediatrics
  • New methods of teaching in the classroom, the ward, clinic, or community
  • New programs (learning modules) involving students and residents
  • Changes in the curriculum at your institution which affect medical education in pediatrics
  • New strategies and tools to evaluate students and residents
  • Using technology in education
