Virtual Journal Club and Webinars
The NMRO Virtual Journal Club debuted in February 2012. It was created to provide a forum for residents to seek guidance on the review of journal articles from experts in the field. Participants are encouraged to actively participate in the discussion. There is NO continuing education associated with these events. And…registration is free!
