October 2022: Exciting Research Opportunities in Family Medicine: A Bird’s Eye View with Lars Peterson, MD, PhD
Lars Peterson, MD, PhD, joins us to offer a crash course in the many family medicine organizations and outlets that offer research opportunities. Dr Peterson demystifies both “big R” and “little r” research projects, describing in detail the differences between large, funded research studies and smaller QI projects, as well as mapping out the places one can disseminate their research findings. He also offers advice for those looking to participate in scholarly activity within their institution, either alone or with a collaborator.
