EMBRS Overview
VIDEOS: Webinars from EMBRS
This series of educational videos featuring Edward A. Panacek, MD, MPH, FACEP, was designed for individuals new to clinical research. It provides background on the fundamentals of research, starting with an overview of the research process and then focuses on specific principles and terms
The (EMBRS) Workshop was designed by a task force of experienced investigators to help the physician with an interest in emergency medicine research get started.
EMBRS is a 10-day, 2-session program. The first session is held in November and the second session is held in April. You must complete the November session before attending the April session. This program provides a broad overview of the basics from idea to IRB approval to final presentation and publication. Participants will learn how to identify clinical research opportunities and become familiar with clinical research and outcomes, injury prevention, health care delivery and effectiveness research. Also, the course includes an introduction to statistics and statistical software and sessions on publishing and presenting your research. Participants are also eligible to receive an EMF/EMBRS grant based on their research grant application. This basic-level course targets:
Junior faculty with limited research experience
Physicians in academic and community centers who are interested in research but have little training in research basics
Physicians who have as part of their duties involvement in research, including mentoring young researchers
Fellows in non-research fellowships.
These materials are designed to be used in your own institution to guide your personal research projects and to help you mentor young investigators.

“Thanks again to Dr. Ed Panacek and the EMBRS and EMF faculty for everything you taught me at EMBRS! I finally got my first large investigator-initiated grant as PI (SBIR Phase I: Induction of therapeutic hypothermia with an esophageal cooling device) for a 6-month, $150,000 award from the National Science Foundation, with another Emergency Medicine colleague, D. Mark Courtney, actively involved as consultant to the project. Very much appreciate all the help, guidance, and direction that you and the EMBRS faculty provided me!” Erik Kulstad, MD, M.S., FACEP
