Research Paper Review

The Research Paper Review is a free service provided by the ACOEP Research Committee that gives researchers valuable feedback on their papers, as well tips for publication. All the research papers submitted for review are blinded and scored, and participants get a detailed rubric of strengths and weaknesses of the project that strengthen their chances of getting published.

For senior residents, there is an added incentive. Every year, the Foundation for Osteopathic Emergency Medicine awards a residency program with the FOEM Research Flame Award at their annual Legacy Gala. The award goes to the Residency Program with the highest average score for senior research papers as determined by the ACOEP Research Committee during their annual review of senior research.

The deadline to participate in the Research Paper Review process is January 31 annually. This research paper review is optional but highly encouraged, and requires a separate submission method than that of the senior resident research papers that need to be submitted as part of the programs Annual Report, which is required.

If you are not a senior resident, simply check that box below. 

Please do not scan and upload papers. Include the original word or writeable PDF document only, so that we can blind papers electronically. Thank you!
