Research Day at PAGNY
Physician Affiliate Group of New York, P.C. (PAGNY) is a public health leader in communities across New York City. Every year, we convene as an organization to celebrate our professionals and their cutting-edge population health research and other investigations at Research Day.
About Research Day
PAGNY’s 9th Annual Research Day was held on November 13, 2024, where we celebrated innovative research that is shaping the future of healthcare. This event brought together leading researchers, healthcare professionals, and students to showcase innovations transforming patient care. Each year, a board of esteemed physicians and researchers review projects focused on identifying innovative strategies to improve the physical and mental health of the most vulnerable populations of New York City who have been affected by health disparities and are underrepresented in biomedical research.
This past year, for the first time, we broadened our invitation for abstract submissions to medical professionals at healthcare organizations across the New York metropolitan area. This gave our providers the opportunity to network with similar goals of enhancing patient care.
Abstracts were presented in the following categories:
- Research: Original research findings in clinical, translational, or basic science research.
- Case Reports/Case Series: Educational clinical cases that highlight unique findings, diagnostic challenges, or innovative treatment approaches.
- Quality Improvement: Impact of quality improvement initiatives on patient care outcomes, healthcare delivery, or clinical practice guidelines.
Research Day remains an essential forum where physicians, residents, and medical students share their research with peers, underscoring the importance of research in the healthcare community.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to our research partner and co-sponsors — COMMUNITY Center, Columbia University’s Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Mailman School of Public Health — for their invaluable support for PAGNY Research Day, helping to make this event possible and enriching our collective research efforts.
