At Johns Hopkins we have 4 hours set aside for lectures per week every tuesday. During this time our pagers are off, and the floors are covered by the attendings. We go through a set of lectures covering PM&R topics that rotate in a 18 month cycle so you see each lecture twice in the residency.

Currently LSU has 5 hours per week soon to have 6 hours per week.

1) Every Tuesday from 4-5pm we alternate each month with lectures on physical exam, journal club, EMG, and gross anatomy dissection (in the dissection we review EMG placement, peripheral injections, and clinical correlations). Two Tuesdays from 5-6pm a month we are scheduling a pain lecture series with the musculoskeletal fellows and Dr. Aprill, and the other two Tuesdays a month will be an O+P review with a focus on assistive devices. Fridays 12-1 lunch is provided along with Grand rounds 3x/month, and a resident meeting 1x/month; Fridays 1-4pm we have guest speakers. The lectures are scheduled months in advance (in August we finished the lecture schedule up until Feb) and a reading assignment is given. A short quiz is given each Friday based on the reading assignment, which correlates with the Fridays lecture.
