2020 ACGME Parker J. Palmer Courage to Teach Awardee Donald L. Gilbert, MD, MS is the residency program director for child neurology at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center.

At the 2021 ACGME Annual Educational Conference, Athena Gonzalez and her team presented their poster, Strategies for Optimizing Fit Testing for Residents and the Evolving Role of the Program Coordinator, about their work in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to ensure residents were wearing properly sized and fitted masks and respirators, even as supplies changed.

Each year, the Annual Educational Conference is the venue for great community gathering, information and idea sharing, networking, inspiration, and more. It’s also where we celebrate the ACGME – and now ACGME International – awardees.

This week's edition of the e-Communication includes details on the Annual Educational Conference, the latest CLER National Report of Findings, and more.
