2026 Research Day Information

Research Day will begin at 8 a.m. with platform presentations during Grand Rounds followed by a Q&A session. All investigators who submit an abstract are invited to display a poster of the research in the Lower Atrium on Research Day. Investigators will be allowed to hang their posters beginning on May 7th at 3pm. The poster template for authors located at St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children can be found using this web link - https://towerhealth.trhmc.org/Pages/Branded-Downloads.aspx

IMPORTANT: You will want to download the eeds app and create an account at least one full day in advance to ensure your eeds account is created in time to use the app for easy sign-in.

Please see the "How to use eeds” flyer for more information. If you need assistance, please contact the St. Chris CME Office at (215) 427-5159.

Selections for platform presentations will be decided after the April 17th deadline. Authors will be contacted if you have been chosen to present. A team of reviewers from St. Christopher's Hospital for Children will use a standardized rubric to evaluate all narrated abstracts for the 36th Annual Research Day on May 8th, 2026. There will be winners determined by level of learner (medical student, resident, attending), staff (nursing), and type of research (basic science, QI/QA) who will receive a $50 Amazon gift card.
