AAMC Minority Faculty Career Development Seminar - Registration is Now Open!

 Please see the opportunity below.

Registration is now open for the 2013 AAMC Minority Faculty Career Development Seminar which will be held September 20-23, 2013 in New Orleans, LA.  I am reaching out to you to assist us in disseminating information about it.

Since 1990, the AAMC has sponsored this 3-day professional development seminar to support the career development of junior faculty (senior clinical and research fellows, instructors, and assistant professors) and post docs (MD, MD/PhDs and PhDs) who aspire to leadership positions in academic medicine.  The program agenda, as well as meeting facts and registration material, are available at View Event Summary or on the announcement below. The Early Bird fee is available through August 15. CME credit will be available.

Additional features of the Seminar include:
  • Signing up for small group career consultation sessions that include career related questions, career plans, and draft grant applications.
  • An opportunity to apply for a K-Writers Coaching Group, a one day pre-Seminar workshop, which is designed for junior faculty who are actively working on an NIH Career Development (K) proposal, and interested in obtaining additional support with developing the proposal.   A separate application and registration are required and there are a limited number of slots.  Information is available here. The application deadline for the K-Writers Workshop is August 9, 2013.

If you require additional information or have questions, please do not hesitate to contact me, Lily May Johnson at lmjohnson@aamc.org; 202-828-0573
