The Academy of Educators, housed within the Office of Faculty Affairs and Leadership Development, has announced the 2021-22 FLAGship (Faculty/Fellow Leadership and Growth) Program cohort. Five of the new members are from the department of medicine.
Launched in 2019 as the Mentored Member Program, the newly rebranded AOE FLAGship (Faculty/Fellow Leadership and Growth) Program provides cohort members, from various departments and specialties, with a community of educators and a venue to discuss leadership development, promotion and progress, and educational literature. It also affords them the opportunity to connect with mentors or to receive assistance with finding a mentor.
Participants will begin an educational project (which could be research, a new teaching opportunity, etc.), attend monthly journal clubs and leadership development sessions, and present one journal club paper during the year.
Congratulations to the following from the Department of Medicine!
Patrick Campbell, MD (Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology)
Kelly Hathorn, MD (Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology)
Laura Rachal, MD (Division of Infectious Diseases)
Tamara Saint-Surin, MD (Division of General Medicine and Epidemiology)
