Grand Rounds are a time-honored educational tradition hosted by each department at academic medical centers. At Washington University School of Medicine (WUSM) there is a deep history of Grand Rounds inspiring and training medical students, clinical researchers, and health care pioneers. The WUSM-CRE2 partnership connects colleagues interested in health, race and/or ethnicity across specialties, disciplines, and schools. We envision CRE2 will co-host speakers with three departments annually.
