First-class training from world-class faculty

The UC Davis Department of Emergency Medicine, along with its residency program, benefit from a diverse faculty firmly committed to developing the next generation of Emergency Medicine physicians. With more than 60 full-time core Emergency Medicine faculty at UC Davis Medical Center and over 200 volunteer clinical faculty at affiliate hospitals, the faculty is larger than most other Emergency Medicine training programs. Core faculty are residency trained and board certified in Emergency Medicine and many have multiple board certifications. Their backgrounds cover a number of areas of focused expertise including Toxicology, Critical Care, and Pediatric Emergency Medicine. At all training sites, faculty provide direct resident supervision and represent many different practice perspectives.

Our department hosts an internationally-known team of researchers working on the causes and prevention of violence. Faculty in this program come from medicine and psychiatry and from other fields: epidemiology, sociology, public policy, and economics, among others. Opportunities exist for postdoctoral research fellows and both clinical and non-clinical learners at many levels of training.
