The need to promote educational research and faculty development grants assist medical educators with grant writing is well documented in the education literature.To proposals, we propose a set of 12 tips for competitive proposals.We distilled challenges effective strategies approaches from our experience assisting proposals. We presented these at workshops on proposals conducted over past 3 years evaluated outcomes presentations participant's experiences writing.Approximately 100...
For reasons that remain not entirely clear, Obstetrics and Gynecology (Ob/Gyn) clerkships often exhibit comparatively higher rates of medical student mistreatment. To explore perceptions our local learning environment, focus groups were held with students yet to start (pre-students) having completed (post-students) their Ob/Gyn clerkship. Topics discussion included expectations experiences, mistreatment, suggestions for improving the environment treatment. Using a naturalistic approach, we...
