Each Scholar will pursue a mentored educational innovation project at their home institution, as well as engage in opportunities to enhance their career as an educator. Projects range from developing safety and quality improvement curricula and teaching cultural competencies to examining the effectiveness of providing interprofessional feedback. Learn more about the 2012 Macy Faculty Scholars.
The 2012 Scholars will join our inaugural class of Scholars who have spent the last year pursuing educational reforms in their health professions schools (read more about their progress).
By harnessing the energies of these innovators and preparing them to be leaders, we hope to accelerate reforms in health professions education so that future doctors, nurses and other health professionals have the skills and knowledge to deliver care effectively in our changing health care system.
