Mentoring in Medicine Longitudinal Study

The United States is facing a worsening physician shortage that particularly affects people living in rural or underserved communities. One strategy used to address this problem is clinical exposure programs for students in high school, college, and/or medical school. Research currently suggests that these programs could influence participants' interest in medicine, specialty choice, and practice location preferences. Mentoring in Medicine is a summer clinical exposure program that targets college students in the Johnstown area of Pennsylvania. This region of the state is socioeconomically disadvantaged and medically underserved. No formal follow-up has been conducted on the participants since the program began in 2004. We plan on surveying these past participants to examine their academic and career interests and outcomes. We will also use physician databases to determine career outcomes. This data will help contribute to the body of evidence regarding educational interventions to improve medical shortages in the United States.

Pharmacy Core Concepts

Since the 1990s, educational research on core concepts and development of related concept inventories have led to the adoption of a new evidence-based paradigm for undergraduate teaching in foundational courses in biology, chemistry, physics, physiology and several other STEM disciplines. The transformative power and effectiveness of this conceptual approach has been demonstrated repeatedly through a quarter century of educational research and development in several science and mathematical disciplines undergirding pharmacy and have provided an evidence-based path to assess instruction methods and compare teaching approaches. Pharmacy education currently has no agreed upon, evidence-based criteria for determining what foundational knowledge content is most important to teach - and most important for students to demonstrate they have learned - prior to licensure and practice. The purpose of this study is to identify the core concepts of pharmacy.
