A huge congratulations and the warmest of welcomes to our new incoming interns who in the last month have graduated medical school, moved across the country to their new homes in Philadelphia, and started their first day of orientation yesterday! We are all looking forward to their first day on the wards on June 20th, where they will join a 70-year legacy of plastic surgery residents stretching back to 1957—now stepping forward as the 70th class of Penn Plastic Surgery.

Dr. Eric Liao delivered an inspiring talk today on bridging the translational gap in pediatric plastic surgery, highlighting the extraordinary growth and impact of the Center for Craniofacial Innovation at CHOP under his leadership. From biobanking and functional genomics to gene-editing and clinical translation, Dr. Liao showcased how thoughtful innovation can reshape the future of craniofacial care.
