Last week, a few of our @bcm_surgery folks had the opportunity to attend the @AmCollSurgeons Leadership and Advocacy Summit in DC where the role as physician advocate extended outside the operating room. We never cease to be impressed by our residents and alumni! #BaylorMade

What is a two-peat?

Resident teams competed in Jeopardy to test their surgical knowledge. Although the competition was tough, the reigning champs, @HMSurgery, took home the win! @AmCollSurgeons

[South TexasACS @STXACS]

Tonight's Surgical Skills Round-Up was nothing but a "stitch"! Residents got to show off their skills and compete for a monetary grand prize. The winners of the Round-Up were @HMSurgery! @AmCollSurgeons

[South TexasACS @STXACS]

This afternoon was filled with outstanding abstract presentations, an ethics lecture, a debate, and a surprise announcement of a new named lecture! We hope everyone found something that sparked inspiration and enjoyed the networking opportunities today! @AmCollSurgeons
