Cultivating an Academic Medicine Physician: A Multi-Pronged Approach to Craft a Comprehensive Faculty Development Curriculum

Role Description: As an academic department nestled within a tertiary care academic center, our faculty are at the core of our work and department mission. They train residents through didactics, simulation and active learning at the bedside, teach medical students, and participate in research projects that push the boundaries of medical knowledge, all while providing exemplary care to our patients. Yet, throughout our training, the predominant focus is on providing clinical care. We as academic faculty are not specifically taught how to be academicians. Faculty development is an incredibly critical part of our mission as an academic center because it increases faculty retention, promotes academic success, and can decrease burnout. My project aims to address this gap in knowledge by developing a robust faculty development curriculum that includes topics our faculty have indicated they need.
