There has been much ado about Virginia Commonwealth University lately, mostly because of the basketball team's upcoming NCAA final four appearance. Kudos to them.
But did you know that the basketball and infection prevention teams at VCU share similar fates?
Fellow colleague and blogger, Eli Perencevich, gives us a succinct and proper time line on VCU's history, with, of course, references to our infection prevention stars, Drs. Richard Wenzel and Michael Edmond.
I was fortunate enough to join the winning team (infection prevention, that is, and not basketball) in 2003.
Although it is not the Final Four, visit us and our posters at the upcoming Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America annual meeting, next weekend.
We will be in black and gold.
