Pathways and Symposia

Clinician Educator Pathway

The Radiology Clinician-Educator Pathway (CEP) offers residents a focused track to develop skills in teaching and academic leadership alongside clinical training. Through faculty mentorship and structured opportunities, residents will design and deliver educational content, lead projects aimed at advancing resident learning and explore scholarship in medical education. By the end of training, residents are prepared to pursue academic careers as clinician-educators who excel in patient care while shaping the future of radiology education.

Business and Economics Curriculum

Students in classroom

The business curriculum is a dedicated week in which residents attend lectures on key business topics in radiology, delivered by expert speakers. Sessions focus on practical and high-impact concepts such as a detailed analysis of RVUs and billing, understanding the job market, and strategies for contract negotiation. The goal is to broaden resident awareness of how the healthcare system operates beyond the reading room and to equip them with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate the next steps in their careers in a more structured and formal way. These topics are curated to resident interest and changed based on annual feedback via surveys to remain dynamic.

Excellence in Healthcare Delivery Curriculum

One weeklong lecture/workshop series aimed to help radiology residents continually work to improve the delivery of health care for all patients, their families, and our community. Prior lectures have focused on learning about the history of Durham, radiology’s impact on climate change, and patient perspectives of receiving radiological examinations. This curriculum is led by residents with faculty moderators. (add HealthDisparities2.jpeg from resident photo box folder).

Informatics Pathway

The Duke Radiology Residency Program is excited to announce the launch of a new Health Informatics Fellowship, offering residents the opportunity to gain formal training in this growing field. Through faculty mentorship and structured opportunities, residents will receive formal education and lead projects to further health informatics in the field of radiology.
