"The New England Journal of Medicine has been a great resource during medical school, and with its reputation for scholarly activities, I know it will continue to be throughout my training and career in practice. I plan on joining the AAEM to fully immerse myself in the field of emergency medicine. As a resident and physician in practice, I can't wait for CME opportunities to learn, grow, and connect with other professionals in the field."

Talk about a couple of the resources you use to stay on top of medical industry trends. It's also a great idea to ask the interviewers if they have any recommendations for you. This can start a conversation that will be helpful to you! Before your interview, look into Emergency Medicine groups, journals, and publications so you can speak knowledgeably about them during your interview.
"I stay up to date by subscribing to the American Journal of Emergency Medicine. Also, I listen weekly to an Emergency Medicine podcast called Core EM."
"I am actively involved in several national EM organizations including EMRA and SAEM and will continue to be as a resident. I am especially hopeful to be able to attend some of the annual conferences to learn more about new and exciting things in Emergency Medicine and to present some of my own research."
