Purpose
The American Medical Association (AMA) is pleased to invite medical schools, residency programs and practice settings to apply for a ChangeMedEd Innovation Grant. In addition to funding, selected institutions will join the AMA ChangeMedEd Consortium. The consortium exists to develop, implement and disseminate bold, innovative projects that promote systemic change in medical education to better train current and future physicians to succeed in our rapidly evolving healthcare system.
The Accelerating Change in Medical Education Initiative began in 2013 as an effort to address some of the most complicated problems plaguing medical education. Now known as the ChangeMedEd Initiative, the American Medical Association’s next phase of work will focus on four priorities: precision education, competency-based medical education (CBME), transitions, and equity, diversity and belonging.
Opportunity description
Selected institutions will receive a one-year $25,000 grant to support novel experiments in precision education while building a community of practice within the AMA ChangeMedEd Consortium. Precision education leverages data and technology to personalize education, improve efficiency of learning and enhance patient outcomes. The AMA is seeking submissions that:
Because precision education is a fledgling construct, projects that are small in scope or presently rely on analogue approaches to data will be considered. Inter-institutional collaborative projects will be particularly competitive Applications from undergraduate, graduate medical education and practice settings are welcome.
The deadline for applications is 5 p.m. Central time, June 26, 2023.
Accepted institutions will be notified by August 4, 2023. Grants will start September 25, 2023.
