CUIMC Grand Rounds

The four deans of the schools at Columbia University Irving Medical Center launched the CUIMC Grand Rounds in 2021 to provide a forum for formal scholarly exchanges across schools and disciplines at the medical center. The CUIMC Grand Rounds will be held quarterly to bring together students, educators, researchers, and clinicians in the spirit of intellectual curiosity and academic cooperation. The inaugural CUIMC Grand Rounds took place on March 1, 2021 and featured David D. Ho, MD.


Upcoming Grand Rounds

"Integrating Mental and Oral Health"

Oral health is an integral part of overall health. Poor mental health, substance abuse and specifically depressive mood states are associated with dental disease at a rate of two to three times that of age-matched subjects.  The grand rounds will focus on how to help close the critical care gap between medical, mental, and dental delivery systems.

 *Registration is required. Virtual option available.
