Suggested topics for CORONA Educational Initiative in Otolaryngology

 

Dear faculty,

We are thrilled to have you volunteer with the CORONA initiative.  Faculty have given and continue to give a variety of lectures.  If you are looking for a topic to cover and/or perhaps want to create new content, below are suggested topics within each subspecialty or focus.  These lists are not intended to be exhaustive, but rather to provide a framework. Note also that if the COVID-induced limitations exist beyond the start of the 2020-2021 academic year, we will be looking for presentations on perioperative management, critical care, and similar topics for our incoming interns.

 

Please remember that lectures need to be HIPPA compliant.
