Medical Education
Our departmental researchers pursue a number of educational initiatives that benefit medical students, residents, practicing physicians and patients.
Medical education research in our department focuses on seven key areas:
- faculty development and leadership
- global health research
- patient safety
- the patient-centered medical home
- minority health and health disparities
- simulation education
- translational research
Our Primary Care Research Institute supports these endeavors by evaluating the knowledge, skills and professionalism of our medical students and residents.
