Each year the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine (VCOM)–Virginia, in conjunction with OMNEE, hosts the Via Research Recognition Day. Via Research Recognition Day is a significant event for VCOM and supports the mission of the College to provide medical education and research that prepares globally-minded, community-focused physicians and improves the health of those most in need.
Via Research Recognition Day offers a forum for health professionals and scientists in academic institutions, teaching hospitals and practice sites to present and benefit from new research innovations and programs intended to improve the health of all humans. By attending the sessions with the speakers, participants have the opportunity to learn cutting edge information in the physiological bases of osteopathic manipulative therapy efficacy, new trends in physician-based research networks, and how to develop innovative research projects with high impact for human health. Poster sessions allow participants to learn about the biomedical, clinical, and educational research activities at VCOM–Virginia and its partner institutions.
