TY - JOUR T1 - The use of slack for medical residency development and recruiting JF - BMJ Health & Care Informatics SP - 194 LP - 195 DO - 10.14236/jhi.v25i3.1019 VL - 25 IS - 3 AU - Simon A.

Slack is a cloud-based team collaborative application that was used by our Emergency Medicine Residency Program to not only streamline communication but also help in recruiting new residents. The majority of medical students auditioning for our programme responded to our use of Slack in a positive manner. We encourage other residency programmes to adopt a similar communication platform to attract the best applicant in a pool of modern learners. ER -
