Residents Bowl Matchups Set for PSTM21
Who will unseat the University of Pittsburgh?

Last year’s champion, the University of Pittsburgh, begins its title defense on Oct. 29 with an opening-round matchup against Stony Brook University/Nassau University Medical Center.

This year’s event brings the in-person excitement back to the competition – although there will be a virtual component.

Some teams opted to participate virtually due to travel restrictions tied to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The virtual participants will have their matches prior to the annual meeting, so the majority of teams competing in Atlanta will be in-person. The international component returns this year, with a team of international residents and a team from the University of Genoa in Italy each claiming a spot in this year’s bracket.

The one-of-a-kind competition pits programs against each other as residents answer questions on case studies and the core curriculum of plastic surgery.

After the final round on Sunday morning, the winners are crowned and have their names engraved on a nearly two-foot tall silver trophy – along with earning year-long bragging rights.
