Events

Stay tuned! 
We hope to increase awareness of PM&R by notifying students of upcoming local research symposiums, inviting speakers and hosting panels. Our fall panel will include residents (from UH, CCF & Metro) who can better answer what it is like to get training in PM&R. Our spring panel will be of lucky 4th years post-Match day, who'll share the tricks of the trade of matching!  

General Info - What is PM&R?

"Physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R), also called physiatry, is the branch of medicine emphasizing the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders – particularly related to the nerves, muscles, and bones – that may produce temporary or permanent impairment. PM&R is one of 24 medical specialties certified by the American Board of Medical Specialties. PM&R provides integrated care in the treatment of conditions related to the brain, muscles, and bones, spanning from traumatic brain injury to lower back pain." (Ref: https://www.aapmr.org/patients/aboutpmr/Pages/FAQs.aspx#1)
