Med-Peds Scholars Symposium 2026

Case Report Competition
NMPRA invites ALL of its members to submit novel and interesting Med-Peds clinical cases for our annual Med-Peds Case Report Competition. We welcome cases submitted by both resident physicians and medical students. Cases should be interesting clinical presentations pertinent to Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, or Med-Peds combined care and should display significant educational value for a Med-Peds audience. Cases may not have been presented previously at regional or national levels. However, those who have presented locally may still submit their abstracts for consideration. Each resident physician and medical student may submit only one case for the competition. Each abstract will be considered for podium presentation. One medical student and one resident will be selected to present and will have 10-15 minutes dedicated to their case. The remainder will be considered for poster presentation.

NMPRA Research Poster Competition
NMPRA invites all of its members to submit original research for our annual NMPRA  Research Poster Competition. We welcome submissions from both resident physicians and medical students across all areas of scholarly work, including Quality Improvement (QI), Basic Science, Clinical Research, and Translational Research (Categories will be determined based on submission volume) .
Projects should be relevant to Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, or Med-Peds combined care, and should demonstrate meaningful contribution, innovation, or educational value for a Med-Peds audience.
Submissions must be original and not previously presented at regional or national meetings. Work presented locally may still be eligible.
