The Residents’ Perspective section is now in its 16th year. The purpose of the column is to create a forum for the discussion and analysis of topics affecting trainees in EM. They were written as informative instructional pieces, educational research, referenced position papers, or uniquely resident perspectives on current EM topics.

Invitation
If you are a current resident in EM and have an idea that you would like to discuss in the Residents’ Perspective section, I’d like invite you to submit an abstract (limit 300 words, double-spaced) outlining the background and significance of the topic to EM residents. Those with novel content will be invited to submit a full manuscript for peer review. The deadline is rolling, and all manuscripts will undergo the same peer review process as all other submissions to Annals.
