Emergency Medicine Basic Research Skills (EMBRS) Workshop
Are you interested in increasing and improving research in emergency medicine?
As a national emergency medicine organization, we understand the importance of increasing and improving research in our specialty. EMBRS does this by encouraging and mentoring young researchers, fostering and supporting research projects that contribute to improvements in patient care, and by developing and increasing the number of emergency medicine researchers.
The EMBRS workshop is specifically designed to help you hone and improve your research skills or program.
This is a great course for young faculty, those interested in improving their skills as a researcher, and physicians who are involved in research as part of their duties.
Participants are also eligible to receive an EMF/EMBRS grant based on their research grant application.
To sign up for the course, complete the online interest list below or email academicaffairs@acep.org. If you have questions about the course, please contact Loren Rives, MNA at lrives@acep.org.

EMBRS is a 9-day, 2-session program. The first session is held in the fall/winter and the second session is held in the spring. 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.
These materials are designed to be used in your own institution to guide your personal research projects and to help you mentor young investigators.
