#em match

In Episode 23, with the upcoming US EM residency interview season about to descend upon us all, I talk about a recent survey that claims to list the best EM residencies, why you should ignore it, what applicants should look for in a residency, and our duty as educators to find the right fit.

Want to write for the EM Res Blog?  Have an idea for an article, or even a series (US of the week, Image of the week…)?  Want to help with podcast episodes?  I want to expand the EM Res Blog and Podcast, but I need your help to do it.  Residents, educators, anyone anywhere - send your ideas to me at [email protected] or @BobStuntz, and let's see if we can make this thing even better!

Please go join our Google Community.  The goal is to have this be a place that EM residents and educators (you can help answer resident questions) can get together to discuss resident issues and questions, both clinical and non-clinical.
