Didactic Education
Twelve of 31 fellows (39%) surveyed responded that programmatic changes
had occurred in their didactic curriculum, with most respondents citing
the increased use of online and video platforms for journal clubs,
didactic lectures, and other clinical discussion groups. Thirty one of
32 fellows (97%) reported weekly participation in the virtual tumor
board series implemented by the CDMS faculty for head and neck fellows.
Program director responses to similar questions included 21 of 37 (57%)
reporting programmatic changes to their didactic curriculum, also citing
video platforms for conferencing as the most widely incorporated change.
Thirty-seven of 38 program directors (97%) were aware of the CDMS
weekly tumor board series for fellows.
