Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Welcome to the third issue of the second volume of Proceedings in Obstetrics and Gynecology. I am please to serve as the guest editor of this issue, Training Tomorrow’s Women’s Health Care Providers. I have been a faculty member in the Division of General Obstetrics and Gynecology in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Iowa since 2000 and the Residency Program Director since December 2011.
This issue contains a broad range of very interesting articles related to medical education, including articles and editorials on new teaching approaches for medical student, resident, and attending physician education. Also in this issue are highlights from the recent ACOG Congressional Leadership Conference and extended abstracts describing resident research within the Department. For a description of the opportunities for Women’s Health at the University of Iowa and an update on the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine curriculum renewal, please read the Topics of Interest section. I am pleased to have contributed to this exciting issue of Proceedings in Obstetrics and Gynecology.
Our journal is peer-reviewed, and we invite your interest and future submissions. Our eventual goal is to become listed in PubMed, so your support in submitting the most interesting clinical studies, reviews and basic research manuscripts is particularly valuable as we move forward. In addition to full length articles, we will publish case reports and interesting clinical cases for review by one of our faculty experts. Please see our instructions for authors and instructions for clinical cases/case reports templates.
On behalf of the Editorial Board including Dr. Kimberly Leslie, Editor-in-Chief, and Susan Schwartz-Rogers, Managing Editor, welcome to Proceeding in Obstetrics and Gynecology! We hope you enjoy our current issue.
Sincerely,
Marygrace Elson, MD, MME
