Online Resources
Unlimited access to online journals, publications, etc. are available to the residents to enhance learning. All medical programs for patients are available as well.

The “Dug Out”
Affectionately referred to as the “dug out” is the resident lounge. Easily accessible 24/7, you will find most residents working online, reading, searching for research forms, or escaping for a quiet moment and a laugh with colleagues. This is also where old shoes are kept, so enter at your own risk.

Fresh Air
Because the center is located on a campus that is eco-friendly, it is easy to quickly step outside for a breath of fresh air. There are 2 quads to eat lunch in (when possible) read on a picnic bench, or just walk through to one of the local and well known Boston lunch depots.
