hello and goodbye, residents and fellows
First year and transfer diagnostic radiology and interventional radiology-integrated residents, all vaccinated, quickly bonded in early July
By Sam Marie Engle
Call June the airport month when outbound residents and fellows board planes (trains and automobiles) for the next phase of their professional career while a new group of residents and fellows arrives with their bags and expectations in tow.
Congratulations to the Class of 2021
For the residency programs’ Class of 2021, graduation was particularly bittersweet: a chance to gather all together for both the first and last time of their senior year. From surge to ebb through a more brutal surge, the residents endured, queued eagerly for two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine clinically tested at Emory, and then resolutely returned to work because that’s what doctors do. The last year of training was a crash course in pernicious polemics: hate as a causative of illness.
Finally, June came. Pandemic safety rules prevented the traditional big bang fete so faculty graciously hosted garden parties with as much care taken as possible to keep attendees safe.
Fellows also enjoyed small celebrations with colleagues in their respective divisions.

Welcoming the Class of 2025
The department then immediately welcomed the DRR and IR-I Class of 2025 plus a few transfer trainees, an exuberant group of doctors ready for the rigors of residency. The residents enjoyed in-person bonding at Atlanta Escape Room as well as largely virtual orientation programming before jumping into clinical and didactic training.

Fellows slipped into their training programs with less fanfare but with comparable anticipation for all they would learn in this next phase of their training.
Here are all of the residents and fellows currently training with Emory Radiology.
